Starting with members of the deer family and their characteristics, this program explains that ruminants are two-toed mammals that regurgitate their food from one of their stomach compartments for further chewing. Featured ruminants include deer, giraffes, ibexes, izards, antelopes, bison, and more of the 191 species distributed throughout the world. Viewers will learn the signs of mating season, how herds are organized, and how ruminants care for their young.
