The following measurements have been reported for the Eld's deer:

The female Eld's deer herd didn't start their "high staccato barking sound" until after the quake had stopped.

The three subspecies of the Eld's deer are:

One apprehension is that at some stage the phumdis may not be able to support the weight of the Eld's Deer or Sangai deer.

The park was formed to preserve the endangered Eld's Deer subspecies, called Sangai in the Manipuri language, indigenous to this area.

Eastern Eld's Deer (Panolia siamensis; considered by some authorities a subspecies of P. eldii)

Furthermore, it has also been suggested that the Eld's deer should have its own genus, Panolia, and is closer to Père David's deer.

The sanctuary protects the endangered Eld's Deer and the Burmese star tortoise, a Critically Endangered species.

Eld's deer (Panolia eldii), also known as the thamin or brow-antlered deer, is an endangered species of deer indigenous to Southeast Asia.

Both the hog deer and Eld's deer are rare, whereas Indian sambar and Indian muntjac thrive in protected national parks such as Khao Yai.

Based on genetic evidence, the Eld's deer should be moved back to Cervus, while the two last species remain in Rucervus or -less likely- could be moved to Axis.

Following the third edition of Mammal Species of the World from 2005, three species are placed in Rucervus, but the Eld's deer should be split into two species.

Wildlife in Cambodia includes dholes, elephants, deer (sambar, Eld's deer, hog deer and muntjac), wild oxen (banteng and gaur), panthers, bears, and tigers.

Some species, such as the kouprey and Schomburgk's Deer, are extinct, and Eld's Deer, hog deer and wild water buffalo are present only in a few relict populations.

In India, the Eld's deer species (sangai) is confined to the peculiar floating bog called Phumdis in Loktak Lake and is numbered at less than a few hundred animals.

Intensive poaching may have already driven Cambodia's national animal, the Kouprey, to extinction, and wild tigers, Eld's deer, wild water buffaloes and hog deer are at critically low numbers.

Some of its prey, like the kouprey and Schomburgk's deer, are extinct, but some, like the Eld's deer, hog deer and wild water buffalo, are still living but rare.

The zoo has 145 species of land animals, including 8 endangered species (the tiger, the takin, Asian elephant, the clouded leopard, the Burmese large tortoise, the great hornbill, the marsh crocodile and the eld's deer).

Endemic: Barking Deer, Elephant, Wild Boars, Gaur, Sambar Deer, Spotted Deer, Nilgai, Eld's deer (Thamin Deer).

For protection of the thamin subspecies of the Eld's deer, Chatthin Wildlife Sanctuary and Shwesettaw Wildlife Sanctuary (both protected sanctuaries) and Alaungdaw Kathapa National Park were chosen.

Breeding and gestation period (conception to birth) Female Eld's deer are generally found alone or in pairs with their young, but during the mating season, females and their young gather in herds of up to 50 individuals.

Endangered wild animals are also kept in the National Kandawgyi Botanical Gardens, including Eld's Deer, Burmese Star Tortoise, Takin, Hog Deer, but there are also pheasant and water fowl.

The Chao Praya River Valley of Thailand was once primarily tropical seasonal moist deciduous forest and wet savanna that hosted populations of hog deer, the now-extinct Schomburgk's deer, the Eld's deer, Indian sambar, and Indian muntjac.
