Animals

The axis deer, or chital, is a strikingly beautiful species that thrives in the wetlands and mangroves of South Asia. With its reddish-brown coat speckled with white spots, it blends seamlessly into the forested environment, providing protection from predators.

Axis deer are social animals, living in herds and feeding on grasses, aquatic plants, and fallen fruits. Wetlands offer a safe haven, with abundant food and natural cover. However, the constant threat of predators, such as tigers and leopards, ensures these deer remain vigilant.

The preservation of wetland ecosystems is vital to the survival of axis deer and the numerous species that depend on this interconnected habitat.
