As most of you know I’ve been dreaming of seeing the Sambar deer! Now that it’s towards the end of my experiment, I still have not seen it alive BUT… nature really throws you something as a reward at the end of the tough two weeks!
Probably a juvenile Sambar deer (accident escapee from the zoo?) I have a whole series of pictures of it moving around! It’s quick~! Judging that it is juvenile, COULD IT BE they are BREEDING????????? OMG!!!!!
Sambar Deer (Rusa unicolor)
They are native to Southern and Southeast Asia! Something exciting from Wiki… not sure how true:
“Stags will wallow and dig their antlers in urine soaked soil and then rub against tree trunks.[4][6] Sambars are capable of remarkable bipedalism for a deer species and stags will stand and mark tree branches above them with their antlers.[6] A stag will also mark itself by spraying urine directly in the face with a highly mobile penis.[4] ”
Dog interested in carcass but in the pictures it shows that it runs away from it later. Probably cause the carcass was too decomposed to be consumed.
