chevrotains
Tragulidae latin

Chevrotains are solitary animals, and usually interact only to mate.

Unusual for most vertebrates, female water chevrotains are larger than males.

Instead, the chevrotains are probably the closest living relatives to these ancient deer-like animals.

Particularly in the old literature, M. meminna often refers to the spotted chevrotains as a whole.

In form, they were rather like today's chevrotains: small, short-legged creatures that ate leaves and the soft parts of plants.

Because they're such a solitary species, the interactions between water chevrotains are only agnostic and reproductive encounters.

The pygmy musk deer are chevrotains, as the kanchil and napu.

Water chevrotains have a rich, sleek red-brown coat on top, and the underside of the coat is white.

Only the chevrotains survive to the present, including the genera Tragulus (the mouse deer) and Hyemoschus.

The six extinct chevrotains genera include:

Family Tragulidae: chevrotains (6 species)

Chevrotains (tragulids)

Chevrotains (Tragulidae)

Spotted chevrotains (Moschiola) are a genus of small even-toed ungulates in the Tragulidae family.

Chevrotains, also known as mouse-deer, are small ungulates that make up the family Tragulidae, the only members of the infraorder Tragulina.

It is the largest of the ten species of chevrotains, basal even-toed ungulates which are similar to deer but are barely larger than small dogs.

Andegameryx were primitive and ancient ruminants, resembling small deer or musk deer, although they were more closely related to modern chevrotains.

During the day, chevrotains can not be found outside of the dense forest; but at night they can be observed in exposed clearings and open river banks.

Tylopoda (camels, llamas and alpacas) and chevrotains have a three-chambered stomach, while the rest of Ruminantia have four-chambered stomachs.

Chevrotains are small, secretive creatures, now found only in the tropical forests of Africa, India, Sri Lanka, and South-east Asia.

This group includes pigs, peccaries, hippopotamuses, camels, llamas, chevrotains (mouse deer), deer, giraffes, pronghorn, antelopes, sheep, goats, and cattle.

Various mammalian species including, crab-eating macaques, gibbons, porcupines, wallabies, mongoose, civets, flying foxes, hares, rodents, badgers, otters, fishing cats and chevrotains are readily taken when encountered.

The only extant members of the suborder Ruminantia that are not pecorans are the chevrotains, which lack horns and whose four-chambered stomachs are less developed than those of the pecorans.

Rashi also argued that the meaning of g'di is still narrow enough to exclude birds, all the undomesticated kosher animals (for example, chevrotains and antelope), and all of the non-kosher animals.

The park has over 60 mammal species, including forest buffalos, leopards, pygmy hippos, Mona Monkeys, water chevrotains, bush babies, civets, elephants, and the Pygmy Flying Squirrel (Idiuus zenkeri).
