This is a male Giant Muntjac (Muntiacus vuquangensis) that I photographed in Lac Xo (Lak Sao), Laos. This species was discovered in 1994 and I photographed it 3 years later. Muntiacus vuquangensis is also called a large-antlered muntjac. Their current population numbers don’t exist because of their elusive nature but they are listed as Critically Endangered.
