The Axis Deer

The Axis Deer is one of the most beautiful animals we have on the ranch. Native to India these animals have a striking reddish-brown coat, marked with very distinct white spots & a black dorsal stripe that runs down the back. White is also lined underneath the inside of the leg, belly, & underneath the throat. The Axis buck can be hard horned anytime of the year. The bucks usually have three tines that measure trophy quality in length anywhere from 27-36 inches tall. The bucks average around 35 inches high at their shoulders and weigh anywhere from 150-250 pounds. The does are much smaller & usually weigh anywhere from 75-125 pounds.The Axis meat is one of the best tasting venison you'll put in your mouth. They are grazers much like cattle & don't have the gamey taste like Whitetails. Axis usually do not store fat so the meat has no marble. The Axis steak has .06 grams of fat, 26 calories, and 13.9 mg cholesterol. In comparison, skinless chicken has .88 grams of fat, 34 calories, and 20.0 mg cholesterol. Lean beef has 1.76 grams of fat, 41 calories, and 16.86 mg cholesterol.
