Small Java Mouse Deer Born At Zoo In Netherlands (PHOTOS)

An endering Java Mouse Deer was born at the Natura Artis Magistra zoo in Amsterdam, Netherlands. This even-toed deer is the smallest ungulate on earth, and it will be the size of a rabbit when it reaches maturity.

The IUCN Red List of Threatened Species classified the Java Mouse Deer as "Data Deficient" due to inconclusiveness regarding the distinct separation of the Tragulus species, as well as the lack of information on Tragulus javanicus.

But despite that status, there is a probability that the population of the Java Mouse Deer will decline, Zoo Borns reported.
