You know what deer are, and they are usually cute and remind you of the Disney cartoon “Bambi.” This deer is also known as the “barking deer” and is a small, stocky mammal. These deer are native to Southeast Asia and are common in the British countryside. They have inflatable facial glands that draw attention to them, and these glands can open so wide that they can actually turn inside out. Hear the deer barking

I have never heard of a barking deer. The horns on this one reminds me of antelope horns.

@velvet53 I wonder what a dog would say if a deer barked at him

I think they are considered vermin in the UK. Another of those introduced pests.

They are certainly pests. They are very common around here.

It looks prehistoric.

Apparently they are endangered in some of their original range in Vietnam, but there are widespread here!
