Père David's Deer

Extinct in the wild for over a century — a living link to ancient China.

About the Père David's Deer

Père David's deer is one of the most unique conservation stories on earth — extinct in the wild for over a century and brought back from a handful of animals preserved in European deer parks. Texas exotic ranches now hold one of the largest populations on the planet.

Pere David's are large-bodied, marsh-loving, and visually unmistakable — with backward-pointing antlers that branch the opposite direction from most deer.
