Fig. 73. Eld's Deer, Cervus (Rucervus) eldi. 
Schomburgk's Deer, Cervus schomburgki, grows complexly 
divided antlers, which by forking may develop as many as nine 
tines each. The brow tine is placed at a right angle with the 
main beam, which soon subdivides. The color is uniform brown, 
the underparts whitish. The hair on the front of the lower fore- 
legs becomes fringe-like. The height at the shoulder is about 
40 inches. This rare Deer is a native of Siam. It reputedly 
reaches Yunnan.
