Description

"Pere David's deer, also known as the milu or elaphure, is a species of deer that are mostly found in captivity. ---- Wikipedia

"Their Chinese and Japanese names are translated as "four unlikes," because the animal has been described as having "the hoofs of a cow but not a cow, the neck of a camel but not a camel, antlers of a deer but not a deer, the tail of a donkey but not a donkey." The Pere David's deer has a long tassel-like tail, broad hooves, elongated snout and branched antlers (males only). . A very unique feature of Pere David's antlers is that they may grow two sets in a single year. Prefer marshland habitat and wetlands along rivers. Good swimmers that will spend hours wading in water up to their shoulders." ---- from www.allaboutexotics.com.
