Koohii stories:

1) [mantixen] 30-7-2009(65): Many deer can be found in the grove at the foot of a mountain.

2) [dihutenosa] 15-8-2008(18): Deer are well known for frolicking in groves of trees. However, they are not well known for actually watching where the heck they are bounding about. Here we have a bunch of dead deer bodies that you find at the foot of a mountain. You are trying to figure why there are so many dead deer in one spot, and then you trace a line up the mountain - leaves and such are scattered all the way up…to a grove. Looks like they hopped through some leaves to their doom.

3) [woelpad] 30-7-2008(8): The cave with the deer painting was found at the foot of a mountain hidden behind a grove. That's why it took centuries to discover.

4) [gavmck] 18-3-2010(5): Deer live in the foothills of mountains where they can hide and shelter in groves of trees. Consequently, you won't find them ABOVE the 'tree line'. Note: To avoid confusion with mountain goat 屰, remember those wild goats are way up above the tree line on steep rocky slopes. Deer thrive in leafy green woods and pastures.

5) [blannk] 22-12-2009(4): Sacred deer live in the grove at the foot of the mountain, foliage so thick that one cannot see the mountain itself.
