Yes as said numerous times deer(plural and singular no s) are herbivores, however, there are certain species such as the ';Red Deer of rhum'; Red deer(Cervus elaphus) on the island of Rhum do at times of the year resort to carnivory.





They do so by eating small birds which are laid on the island by the parents and left to fend to themselves as there are no natural predators.
