Stags are beasts, a type of deer. They are large animals, taller than humans, and have antlers. Most stags are neutral when approached. Despite being herbivores, they are tough, fast, and territorial, and can provide a challenge for any hunter.^[1]

Stags are common in forested areas throughout Azeroth. They are targets for humanoid hunters and natural predators like wolves, but their mighty antlers and ferocity make them difficult prey. Stags avoid conflict but can be aggressive in larger groups or when startled.
