Hi,

the article is interesting and good but the picture is wrong !!! This is not a Fallow Deer ( Dama Dama).

Thanks, Juan

Do you mean the picture on the right ? Is it about the antlers' shape ? What is on the picture then ? Arsine 11:44, 21 July 2006 (UTC)

There's also a tiny population of Fallow deer in Western KY's 'Land Between the Lakes'. As for the picture on the right, the spotted colorings look right but I've seen better pictures of the shovel shaped antlers that characterize the Fallow Deer.

Hi The last picture in the Fallow Deer article is not a Fallow Deer stag at all. It is infact a Sika Deer in his summer coat and velvet antlers. I belive all the other pictures are Fallow.

Indeed, the Fallow Deer is more slender and has flattened antlers. I removed the picture from the article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.18.213.234 (talk) 23:06, 10 March 2008 (UTC)
