Largest deer in India - Sambar Deer - facts and details about Indian wildlife

A video about Sambar deer -- The largest deer found in India.
The sambar (Rusa unicolor) is a large deer native to the Indian subcontinent, South China, and Southeast Asia that is listed as a vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List since 2008. Populations have declined substantially due to severe hunting, local insurgency, and industrial exploitation of habitat.
The sambar is distributed in much of South Asia as far north as the south-facing slopes of the Himalayas in Nepal and India, in mainland Southeast Asia including Burma, Thailand, Indochina, the Malay Peninsula, Indonesia (Sumatra and Borneo), Taiwan, and South China, including Hainan. In the Himalayan foothills, Myanmar, Sri Lanka, and eastern Taiwan, it ranges up to 3,500 m (11,500 ft). It inhabits tropical dry forests, tropical seasonal forests, subtropical mixed forests with stands of conifers and montane grasslands, broadleaved deciduous and broadleaved evergreen trees, to tropical rainforests, and seldom moves far from water sources.

We are so lucky to have them here 🇦🇺👍 the majestic Samba. They are special.

[@otakuhunter4817]

amazed to learn it got introduced in Australia .It peaked my interest learning about their current whereabouts which had me typing sambars in aus on search.The results had all of them being hunted by human. The thumbnails ranged from people holding up the Sambar's limbs , gut etc ..you get the point. Nonetheless it got me surprised for a second time within a few minutes.

Australia has an introduced Sambar population possibly in their hundreds of thousands.

When I watch this, I have a hope that there will be no hunters who hunt down all the wild animals in Vietnam.

[@KNFngo]

We hope for no hunters too !

[@VinodKumar-py2oz]

Beautiful quality footage! I guess you shot using a tripod. I own a Nikon p1000 & looking to buy a sturdy quality tripod. Which one would you suggest? Thanks

[@KNFngo]

Thank You. We are currently using Benro T660EX.

[@msgatarun]

It can be seen in the end of westernghats at Kanniyakumari district forest areas

[@KNFngo]

Yes. Kodayar dam areavula nalla paarkalam.

[@isaacclarke4229]

I think largest deers are Nilgais

[@KNFngo]

Nilgais are large but they come under antelopes whereas Sambar is classified as a deer species.
