"Axis deer, also known as the chital, is a deer species native to South Asia. Throughout the 19th and 20th centuries, axis deer were introduced throughout Europe, Australia, and the Americas as game animals. The axis deer are known for their rusty-red coats with permanent white spots, the stags' three tined antlers, and their loud "screaming" vocalizations. Axis deer are adaptable feeders and can generally be found in woodlands, forests, and clearings near waterways. Their group sizes are highly dependent on the seasons as well as the availability of leafy forage and a permanent source of water (axis deer drink everyday). They are most active at dawn and dusk and rest under the shade of trees during the day."
