Pere David's Deer

The Milu, otherwise known as "Pere David's Deer," has been threatened by expanding civilization, war, and natural disaster, and yet has managed a remarkable story of survival. The History Guy recalls the forgotten story of a species whose fate was inextricably intertwined with human history.

The Bronx Zoo has maintained a herd of Père David Deer since 1946 and, including the four new fawns, has produced 165 offspring over the years. The species is bred at the Bronx Zoo as part of the Species Survival Program (SSP), a cooperative breeding program designed to enhance the genetic viability of animal populations in zoos and aquariums accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums

[@TSmith-yy3cc]

Fascinating; always appreciate interesting comments like yours!

[@rykhaven3331]

The pronunciation of "4 unlikes" is as follows: "ssssuh (downward inflection, yes, it's actually a long "s" followed by a very short "uh"), boo (upward inflection), yong (downward inflection, it's spelled "yang", but it sounds more like "yong"). So: "Sssuh-boo-yong" - literally "four-not-alike". His pronunciation was ok though ^_^

[@Kenniii3]

You had me on the edge of my seat the whole time rooting for Pere David's deer through its many perils. I was afraid to were going to tell us that the species had failed. So glad the men who fought to preserve them were men of honor and weren't just interested in owning a peculiar possession. They did the whole world a favor.

Pere David deer were some of the first animals at the newly started Smithsonian Conservation Center in Front Royal Va in 1975. The center was on the site of a former "Remount Station". It was one of only 3 remounts in the country used to gather, break, and ship out horses and mules for the US military. It was providing animals into the second world war. Later, the land and buildings were repurposed for the Smithsonian Conservation Center. I had mentioned the Remount station for a possible topic for a THG video in another comment section. If you visit Virginia to research the Remount station you should look into the "secret" WWII prisoner of war camp at Fort Hunt Park near Fort Belvior. Fort Hunt was the smaller fort on the VA side of the Potomac that helped guarded the approach to Washington. Fort Washington on the MD side was the bigger one. I love your videos and as someone with family roots in St Louis I have a soft spot for that area. I even had family on the gateway arch committee back in the day.

[@netassassinsecurity]

What a great video! My wife and I have our own conservation program for these beautiful deer. The deer are very kind and gentle animals, are inquisitive, and playful. We have lots of video of the main bull in our herd juggling sticks in his antlers. He tosses them into the air and catches them, tussles them about in his antlers and then tosses them up into the air again to repeat the process. We have had a lot of success in breeding them, and always try to add new ones to our ever growing herd. They free range around the property, swim in the lakes, and have made friends with the wildebeests - both herds protecting the young of the other herd. The deer are slightly smaller than a quarter horse for reference on size. They are also very vocal. They use various honks and grunts to communicate with each other. We love to see them and even hear them. The large hooves he talks about work great in sand and allow them to swim very quickly. They have webbing between the toes of their hooves, and they are very beautiful to see in a lake swimming in water up to their heads. As a consequence of that webbing, when they walk their hooves are spread out while under the weight of their bodies, so when they lift their foot to take a step the toes of the hooves come together and make a clicking sound. It sounds a lot like castanets. So when a group of them goes walking together you can hear them long before you get a glimpse of them. They are also very fast. We have many species of deer, and we keep our own horses. The Père David are faster than any animal on the preserve. They can outrun thoroughbred horses with ease. They are also tough, and are very protective of their herd. As with most deer, they are explosive in their movements and are amazingly powerful. A visitor let their French Mastiff loose, violating our rules on leashing pets that visit (therapy and service animals are the only ones allowed on the property.) the mastiff ran towards one of the Père bulls. The Père lowered his head in a warning to the dog. The mastiff wouldn’t return to its owner and decided to charge the Père. The Père waited until the mastiff was close, not twitching one bit, and snapped its head up lifting the mastiff off the ground using its antlers. In that movement it hurled the 100+# mastiff through the are more than 100’. When the mastiff regained its footing the Père grunted at it and took one single step towards it and lowered its head again - the mastiff ran back to its owner and wanted nothing to do with the deer after that. We love this species of deer and our goal is to continue breeding them so that we can help provide more back into the wild.

[@Pygar2]

@xirsamoht x The most successful survival strategy for any species is to be useful to humans.

Another great history lesson I was unaware of or I had never read about. Thank you History Guy for such a diverse lesson. I do enjoy the occasional military lessons but it’s the diversity I find truly refreshing and inspiring. I shall never view the North American WhiteTailed Dear with the same eyes without thinking of this once almost extinct animal again. I believe the true lesson here is that nature is so fragile and it could take just a few thousand starving people to upset the balance of nature causing the complete annihilation of a specie. The North American Buffalo was almost completely wiped out because of pure greed and not the need for food to feed people. There’s a history lesson there too! Take care of our earth or she shall take care of us....

A few ranchers, mostly in west Texas and Kansas realized what was happening to the bison. They would chase the remaining herds. The calves would tire and drop out. Then, being herd animals, simply follow the ranchers horse back to the ranch. I can thank those ranchers for their foresight and the small herd I have today.

[@MrWATCHthisWAY]

the old hunter 60 - maybe this should be and these ranchers be put together for the people who saved the North American Bisson. I know only bits and pieces of their legacy, but I found it interesting when I flew for the Navy and was stationed on Oahu in 85 that there were Bisson on the island of Kauai that were considered on the endangered specie list so the farmers had a tax exempt status on their land because of keeping Bisson. Once the Bisson came off the list in 86 the farmers slaughtered the Bisson and sold the meat and never once sent the Bisson back to the mainland. It’s all about money and not about the Bisson.
