Eld's Deer
Panolia eldii
Eld's deer inhabit open deciduous forest, grassy clearings, and floodplain grasslands in South and Southeast Asia. They browse grasses, leaves, shoots, and fallen fruit, often feeding most actively around dawn and dusk. Males are notable for their long, sweeping antlers, which can form a many-tined lyre-like shape and are used in breeding-season contests.
