Whitetails in Russia?

[meatgazer]

I understand that Russia has some huge forests. Would be good habitat for whitetails? But.....they say that the forests are being destroyed becasue of illegal lumbering by the Russian mofia. Hunting camps over there would be an alternative to destroying the forests. Do they have whitetails?

Whitetails are a species unique to North America, and parts of Central & South America (naturaly occuring). Mule deer as well. Russia has several different varieties of deer- roe, musk, axis, etc.

I've heard that whitetails were introduced to Finland a while back. So Russia wouldn't be out of the question.
