More Information:
Found in Philippines
Like white-tailed deer, when danger threatens, they raise their tails and flash the white underside
Know as "hog deer" because they are stout with short legs. When fleeing from potential danger, they dash through underbrush with their heads down like a hog instead of jumping like other deer.
Hunted by local people for meat, hides, and antlers
IUCN: Endangered
