Celebrating the National Key Deer Refuge's 60th Anniversary this week. We often get asked how the Key deer get from island to island. Its pretty simple, they either walk or swim. This helps them move about the lower Florida Keys pretty easily, although they prefer to stay on the islands that have natural freshwater wetlands. Although most of the population resides on Big Pine and No Name Keys, they range all the way westward to Upper and Lower Sugarloaf Keys. Video Credit: Mary Lou Dickson | Flo

It's really hot out! If you want to see the most wildlife, and capture the best photo opportunities at National Key Deer Refuge, it's best to get out early in the morning or wait until an hour or two before sunset. Just a reminder that the key deer find plenty of healthy natural food by themselves, so please don't feed them; it's not healthy for them, and it's against the law. Please help us spread the word.

Key deer journal: The Key deer are found throughout the lower Florida Keys islands, from No Name Key/Little Pine Key area west all the way to Saddlebunch Keys. We always get questions about how Key deer get from island to island. As you can see, they are pretty used to island living, and they have no trouble wading through shallow water, swimming or even walking the bridges that connect the islands.

The Key deer might be small, but they’re a big deal in the Florida Keys 🦌 This subspecies of white-tailed deer is found only in the Lower Keys, with most living on Big Pine and No Name Key. Key deer are about the size of a large dog, weigh between 45 and 75 pounds, and yes - they can swim from island to island. These deer were once nearly extinct, with fewer than 50 remaining by the 1950s. Thanks to conservation efforts, there are now around 800–1,000 of these cherished locals living in the wil

Daily Commute: While the endangered Key deer have acclimated to living alongside people they often need to take breaks away from the commotion to disappear to quiet areas of the refuge to rest, relax and re-chew their food. These deer were in a group of 11 does and fawns that were done their morning feeding and were heading across a tidal creek to a protected area.

Did you know today is #KeyDeerAwarenessDay? Florida Key deer are delightfully tiny — about the size of a medium dog. And although they look like common white-tailed deer, Key deer are subspecies unique to the lower Florida Keys and are found nowhere else in the world. Key deer once ranged across the lower Florida Keys, but now they primarily live in one area, called Big Pine Key, and surrounding small islands. Unsurprisingly, much of the habitat where this species remains is under immense threat
