Doe or buck (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

deer

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'doe' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'buck' is the second definition.
(buck can mean a male deer)

(Other definitions for deer that I've seen before include "Red, roe or fallow" , "Perhaps fallow" , "Source of venison" , "Eg, stag or doe" , "The male has antlers" .)

I've seen this clue in the Penny Press, the USA Today, the King Feature Syndicate and The New York Times.
