The Sambar ( or Sambar Deer ) is Asia's largest deer species and is the only widespread large forest and woodland deer in India.

Only the males have antlers.

In different national parks across India I have experienced that the sambar's loud alarm call ( a type of honk ) is a reliable indicator of the presence of a large predator in the area. After their warning call we have found tigers, leopards and Asiatic wild dogs.

Clicked this Indian Sambar at the Tholpetty Wildlife Sanctuary in Wayanad district. It is my first shot of this deer. This deer which is a subspecies of the Sambar Deer is native to India and Sri Lanka. This subspecies is one of the largest Sambar subspecies. Large males weight up to 270-280 kg. Sambar live in both lowland dry forests and mountain forests. Unlike the other subspecies of the Sambar the Indian Sambar is not listed as a vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List.

The sambar (Rusa unicolor) is a large deer native to the Indian subcontinent, South China and Southeast Asia that is listed as a vulnerable species on the IUCN Red List since 2008. Populations have declined substantially due to severe hunting, local insurgency, and industrial exploitation of habitat.

 

The name "sambar" is also sometimes used to refer to the Philippine deer called the "Philippine sambar", and the Javan rusa called the "Sunda sambar".

Grey-streaked Flycatcher, Grey-spotted Flycatcher, Muscicapa griseisticta, Sambar Lorek Kelabu

A rare flycatcher here that love to perches in the open, waiting for passing insects, then flies out to catch them before returning to its perch and eating them. It breeds in the vast coniferous forests in north-east China, North Korea and south-east Siberia. In spring and autumn it migrates through eastern and southern China, South Korea, Japan and Taiwan. In winter it occurs in forests, forest edges and open country with scattered trees in Borneo, the Philippines and Indonesia.

Sambar deer in a lush green forest are the largest of the Asian deer species. They have a thick coat of long, coarse hair which forms a dense mane around the neck, especially in males. Sambar deer are shy and elusive animals. They are most active at dawn and dusk, and they spend the day resting in dense vegetation. Sambar deer are herbivores and their diet consists of a variety of plants, including grasses, leaves, and fruits.

Above a highly alert herd of deers finally come to the water along the edge of the forest for safety. They do this only when approached by predators like Wild dogs. Sambar deers are one of the largest species of deer in India, esp. in Southern part.
