The Axis Deer is a very large species of deer. They are often referred to as the “Spotted Deer” due to their numerous dramatic white spots, which contrast to their rich dark brown color. Axis Deer are high legged, with thick necks and long heads. Males tend to be larger in size while females typically have thicker necks and chests. Males are also darker in color, and their coats continue to darken with age. Interestingly, Axis Deer also have long and notable eyelashes.
