Cervine

/ˈsɜːrvaɪn/ adjective

Definition

Relating to or resembling deer, or having qualities characteristic of deer.

Etymology

From Latin cervinus (of or relating to deer), derived from cervus (deer), used as an adjective to describe deer-like qualities or characteristics.

Kelly Says

A 'cervine gaze' in literature usually means a gentle, watchful look with big eyes—writers borrowed this image from deer because of how alert and graceful they appear, even though they're actually quite nervous animals.
