Tufted Deer facts

This month I am going to write about amazing animals that you've probably never heard of before but today I am going to write about Tufted Deers.

Habitat?

The Tufted deer lives in central China.

Diet?

The Tufted deer is a vegetarian which means it mainly eats leaves, sticks, grass ect.

What does it look like?

The tufted deer has a white belly and undertail and is grey on its back with a big black tuft on its head which gives it its name.......One more thing that you probably didn't think about these animals, the males have vampire fang looking teeth.

Why do the males have their fang like teeth?

The males have their fang like teeth to impress the females during mating season when they fight each other.

How do the males fight?

The males fight by battling each other with their mini antlers hidden under their tufts until one of them loose balance and the other one holds them down with his teeth.
