Muntjak

Muntjak (Cervulus muntjac). These small deer, of which there are several species, appear to connect the true deer with the Chevrotains (q.v.); they inhabit the forest tracts of the oriental region—i.e. India, China, Java, Sumatra, Formosa, and the Philippines. The males have large canine teeth as in the Chevrotains; the horns are borne upon a long pedicel covered with hair, which seems to resemble the 'horn' of the giraffe.
