Deer Enclosure

Like the spiritual animal, achieve your goals with grace and gentleness

Deer Enclosure is home to many familiar varieties of deer. Featured animals include: the Yaku sika deer, a small spotted deer native to Kyushu mountain range in Japan; the Yezo sika deer, one of the many subspecies of the sika deer native to Japan and Northeast Asia; the Sambar deer, a large deer native to the southern Asian continent often found near water; the Indian hog deer, “hog” due to its small, short, squat appearance and its unusual way it flees into thick underbrush; the red deer, one of the largest deer standing proud and tall with its massive antlers; the P?re David's deer, named after a French missionary in the West but in Asia known as the “sibuxiang” in Chinese, literally meaning "four not alike,” or the animal unlike cow, deer, donkey, and horse, and the wapiti or elk, one of the largest species within the deer family.

The deer family is widely populated across continents. Deer antlers are one of the most exaggerated male features, but not exclusive to male. Deer are specialized herbivores and are strong, agile but gentle by nature. A deer may have between one and three babies, two being most common.
