I suggest add an image ( in the articles about animal and plants the images are a must be ..) of a Chevrotain.
You can see in thepublic domain image or capture an image with yourdigital camera and donate it to the public domain.
Or at, least, a link to a web page where there is a picture of the animal / plant. Later, the readers / editors of the wiki can add a free (public domain) photo (i.e. from azoo, abotanical garden...).
What's up with that one imagine? It looks like, below the deer in the hay, someone copied and pasted stuff over it. Like to cover something? --Mithcoriel (talk)14:22, 15 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I have deleted the trivia section formerly included with this article. I incorporated some of the information into the text, but deleted the following:
This information does not appear encyclopaedic, or particularly useful, as I dare say many zoos have specimens.Anaxial (talk)09:13, 18 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The recent news article about the Mouse-Deer'spredilections described them, as this article does, as having noticeably enlarged canines. This is a characteristic that I noted when trying to evict what was identified to me as aMuntjac (common feral introduced animals in England) ; however this characteristic isn't noted in the Muntjac page. Which suggests that either the identification I was given was wrong and perhaps Mouse-Deer are also wild in Britain, or that there is a significant error in the Muntjac page. Since I'm not a great one for the non-fossilised animals, I raise the question here in hope of finding a better informed audience.Aidan Karley (talk)13:08, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Like yourself, I'm not an expert but this image might help you -http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic-art/155547/6668/Chinese-muntjac.DaveK@BTC (talk)14:04, 7 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
"The lesser mouse deer of Southeast Asia is the smallest of all ungulates, at a mature size as little as around 45 cm (18 inches) and 2 kg (4.4 lb)." ...The Pudu is smaller at 13 inches, according to its article. Should I change this, or is there more to the matter?24.108.37.224 (talk)17:14, 6 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
These two pages are similar but also conflicting. They both claim to be the smallest ungulate / hoofed mammal and both admit that the terms "chevrotain" and "mouse deer" can be used interchangeably. So either merge the two pages or make it clear that they're distinct?— Precedingunsigned comment added byRebeccaFilardo (talk •contribs)19:53, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Chevrotains are the smallest hoofed mammals in the world, which is true for the group, andLesser mouse-deer states that this is the smallest within that group. What is confusing? --Elmidae(talk ·contribs)20:54, 18 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
This is an incomplete article. Please include additional size dimensions (male/female length, etc.).— Precedingunsigned comment added by69.146.144.86 (talk)03:27, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The phrase 0.7 and 8.0 kg (1.5 and 17.6 lb) translates the second number at 17.6 pounds, a decimal point error; should be 1.76 pounds.-motorfingers- (talk)16:47, 3 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
The mousedeer plays a core role in Malay folklore. Hugh Clifford wrote about it in the late 19th century, as an early Western source. I haven't checked the Malay version of the article for a folklore section. I'll update when there's anything related worth translating.103.1.71.149 (talk)08:15, 20 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
