The spotted one.....


This is picture of spotted deer at Van Vihar, the National park at Bhopal. A nervous animal, is camera shy and always alert. It is most commonly found member of the deer family in India. Spotted deer is herbivores and loves grass. Van Vihar is great habitat for them in Bhopal. It does not have any enclosures except the outer boundaries of Van Vihar, hence they can freak out. Grass and other plant species growing in Van Vihar are sufficient for these herbivores except in harsh summer when grass just dries up, they need support which probably Van Vihar staff does for them.
