The muntjac (jǐ) is a small artiodactyl mammal that is distributed in forests, grasslands, mountains and other areas in Asia and Europe. The muntjac is small and exquisite, usually only 50-90 cm long, 30-42 cm high at the shoulder, and weighs between 1-15 kg.
The back of the muntjac is chestnut or dark brown, and the belly is lighter in color. The hair is short and thin in summer and becomes thick and thick in winter. The muntjac's limbs are long and slender, adapted to walking through jungles and bushes.
Muntjacs are herbivores, feeding on leaves, buds, and herbs. They are active at night and often hide in bushes during the day to avoid predators.
Due to human overexploitation and forest destruction, some muntjac populations are already facing serious threats. Therefore, many countries have listed muntjacs as key protected animals and have taken relevant measures to protect their habitat and population stability.
