What is a stag?

A stag is a male deer, typically characterized by its large antlers. Stags are widely known for their majestic appearance and symbolize strength and virility in many cultures. They are also known for their mating behavior during the rutting season, where males compete for the attention of females by roaring and displaying their antlers. Stags are herbivores and primarily feed on grass, leaves, and plants. In some regions, stags are hunted for their meat and antlers, which are often prized as trophies.
