Praemegaceros (SciiFii)

The Sardinian deer (Praemegaceros cazioti) is a species of megacerine deer which originally lived on both Sardinia and Corsica from Middle to Late Pleistocene and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to Sardinia and Corsica to help boost biodiversity. Just like other deer, the females live in herds while males are more solitary. The Sardinian deer is mainly a grazer and is found all over both Sardinia and Corsica. Interestingly, the Sardinian deer descends to the rocky shores and beaches, looking for salt crusts and minerals on the rocks and feed on them. This helps the males grow their magnificent antlers. The conservation status of the Sardinian deer is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the Sardinian deer's wide natural range.
