Males have long, broad, flattened antlers.
Horns are shed every winter but grow back immediately and by summer, the growth is complete. Coat colouring is fawnish brown, with the back being light brown and the sides paler, almost a creamish colour. White spots are seen on the back and sides of the body. Tail and rump are white. The present habitats of the Persian Fallow Deer are the warm regions of South West Iran and the dense forests of khouzestan and Zagros regions, where a natural population can be seen.
