They do pretty much the same as they do in the other seasons only they eat bark instead of grass.

This is not a scientific answer, but, I have noticed that the summer coat color will match the colors in which the deer finds itself. The light brownish color matches the clay dirt and is of the earthtones. This holds true for the winter coat. In the winter, the leaves are gone and the brownish coat that gave them the invisible status is gone too. Winter brings the gray dead look of the tree trunks, and dead leaves on the ground, without any foliage and the deer's coat will change as God's way of providing the animals with the protection of invisibility in the winter. That's my take on it.

I would think it is to protect each other from predators, as they are unable to run as fast in the deep snow.

the white tailed deer adapt to winter by going in to pine trees and grow more hair so they stay warmer.
