If You See a Deer is a mini-series companion podcast to Erika Howsare’s book, The Age of Deer (out from Catapult Books in January 2024). Along with Tyler J. Carter, a writer and academic, Erika explores questions about where nature and culture collide—mysteries of ecology and history that spring from our relationship with deer, a very familiar, yet wild, animal.
