What is Hog deer?
[[File:Axis porcinus - Flickr - Lip Kee (1).jpg|thumb|right]] The '''hog deer''' or 'Indian hog deer' (''Hyelaphus porcinus'') is small [[deer]]. It is widespread in Asia. It lives in [[Pakistan]], [[Kashmir]], northern [[India]], Nepal, Bangladesh, southwestern [[Yunnan]] Province in [[China]], all the way to western [[Thailand]]. The deer gets its name from the way it runs through the forests with its head hung low so that it can duck under obstacles instead of leaping over them like most other deer. It runs with its tail erect, showing the white underside. {{commons|Axis porcinus}} {{-}} {{biology-stub}} [[Category:Deer]] [[Category:Mammals of Asia]] [[Category:Mammals of Pakistan]] [[Category:Plants and animals of Kashmir]]
