Fea's muntjac


The Fea's muntjac or Tenasserim muntjac is a rare species of muntjac native to southern Myanmar and Thailand. It is a similar size to the common muntjac.
It is diurnal and solitary, inhabiting upland evergreen, mixed or shrub forest with a diet of grasses, low-growing leaves, and tender shoots.
The young are usually born in dense vegetation, remaining hidden until able to travel with the mother.
It is named after zoologist Leonardo Fea. Its other name comes from the Tenasserim Hills, between Burma and Thailand.
