Ohio Rev. Code § 5.032

Current with legislation from 2024 received as of May 9, 2024.
Section 5.032 - State animal

The animal, Odocoileus virginianus, commonly known as the white-tailed deer, is the official animal of the state. Naming the white-tailed deer as the official animal of the state does not relieve the division of wildlife of its duty to manage the deer population and its distribution.
