Bringing it to you
Any of 14 foods on a feeder draws one in, every one listed below. It arrives from 45 m away, so leave it room.
What it leaves you
Cut all the way down, one buck gives 7 to 8 Deer Steak, 6 Big Animal Fat and 1 to 6 Bone, and the rest listed below. That is 7 cuts with any cutting tool, 84 seconds of work with no Survival skill and 28 at Above Advanced, and it pays 175 Survival XP. Its meat goes into 34 dishes. Its head mounts as the Buck Trophy.
Quests it helps with
15 more quests take any animal's kill or Big Animal Fat, Bone, Big Animal Guts or Animal Skin, so a buck counts toward those too. They are all on the quests page.
Where it lives
A buck is a deer: every deer the game spawns is a hind or a hart, picked at random, and the hart is the buck, wearing one of 4 sets of antlers. Deer live in mountains, meadow and forest. Look in the mountains first: the deer makes up 40% of the animals there. The map shows all 210 of those areas.
- Mountains (35 on the map): Deer: 40% or 25% of the animals here, by mix, on its own
- Meadow (105 on the map): Deer: 1 in 4 of the animals here, on its own
- Forest (70 on the map): Deer: 1 in 4 of the animals here, on its own

- Buck Stops Here, from the Hunter (tier 2): Kill a deer. Pays 2,000 cash and 10 fame.
