I'm returning to Arizona for another Coues deer hunt and I want to make sure that I'm pronouncing their name properly so that when I call to them, "Come here little Coues deer", they will come running.

What is the proper pronunciation for "Coues" deer?

Is it pronounced COWs, like the animal that gives milk?

Or is it pronounced KOOs, like the sound that a dove makes?
