"These female deer are often found alongside a male. They're very timid animals by nature, but they tend to let their guard down when eating apples, a favorite food. This tidbit of information can be useful to hunters."

— Hyrule Compendium entry

A Mountain Doe is an animal found in Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom.

Breath of the Wild

Mountain Does look fairly similar to the Mountain Buck, but lack the large antlers, and have a lighter coloured coat. They can be found in forests, less commonly fields, and are easily startled. Albeit uncommon, it's possible to spot mountain does in places like the mountains of Hebra.

Mountain Does are the smallest animals Link can ride in the game, but they cannot be registered at a stable. Does, like bucks are very skittish and perceptive, and being herd animals, they may be alerted of Link's presence if any nearby deer see Link, and will take flight.

Upon death, mountain does drop Raw Prime Meat.

As part of the quest Good-Sized Horse, the Mountain Doe cannot be sold to Zyle, as he refuses to buy it since it's not a horse. Similarly, Mountain Does are not a valid option for The Crowned Beast shrine quest, which necessarily requires riding a Mountain Buck; this is despite the fact that Does are more numerous than Bucks.
