The deer years to human years calculator is a specialized tool designed to compare the equivalent human age of a deer.
For example….
- A 1-year-old deer would be equivalent to a 12-year-old human
- A 3-year-old deer would correspond to a 23-year-old human
- A 7-year-old deer would be akin to a 43-year-old human
Deer Years to Human Years
Deer Age in | Human Years |
---|---|
1 | 12 |
2 | 17.5 |
3 | 23 |
5 | 33 |
7 | 43 |
8 | 48 |
10 | 58 |
12 | 83 |
15 | 83 |
20 | 108 |
Deer Years to Human Years Formula
- Early Life (0-3 years):
- 1 deer year = 12 human years
- 2 deer years = 17.5 human years (average of 1 and 3 year values)
- 3 deer years = 23 human years
- Young Adult (3-7 years):
- Uses linear interpolation
- Formula:
Human Years = 23 + ((Deer Years - 3) * ((43 - 23) / 4))
- Adult (7-10 years):
- 7 deer years = 43 human years
- Uses linear interpolation for ages 8-9
- Formula:
Human Years = 43 + ((Deer Years - 7) * ((58 - 43) / 3))
- 10 deer years = 58 human years
- Senior (11-15 years):
- All ages in this range equate to 83 human years
- Elderly (15+ years):
- Any age over 15 equates to 108 human years
For instance, if we input 5 deer years into this formula:
Human Years = 23 + ((5 - 3) * ((43 - 23) / 4))
= 23 + (2 * 5)
= 33 human years
