Sambar Deer is a large deer that inhabits much of Southern Asia and can be found in a variety of forest habitats. These hardy species are seen congregating in large herds in the national parks and reserves of Sri Lanka, India and Thailand. The Sambar deer found in Sri Lanka is a sub-species found only in the island nation known as Rusa unicolor unicolor. This sub-species is one of the largest found in the world, and has the largest antlers both in body and in size.

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.
The hairless area on the lower throat is called "the sore spot", and is apparently unique to this deer species.

I took this picture in Ranthambore national park, India. We got lucky seeing this male as the golden hour hit.
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".

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.

Sambar Deer (Cervus unicolor)
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.
The red deer is the fourth-largest deer species behind moose, elk, and sambar deer. It is a ruminant, eating its food in two stages and having an even number of toes on each hoof, like camels, goats, and cattle. European red deer have a relatively long tail compared to their Asian and North American relatives. Subtle differences in appearance are noted between the various subspecies of red deer, primarily in size and antlers, with the smallest being the Corsican red deer found on the islands of Corsica and Sardinia and the largest being the Caspian red deer[8] (or maral) of Asia Minor and the Caucasus Region to the west of the Caspian Sea. The deer of central and western Europe vary greatly in size, with some of the largest deer found in the Carpathian Mountains in Central Europe.[6] Western European red deer, historically, grew to large size given ample food supply (including people's crops), and descendants of introduced populations living in New Zealand and Argentina have grown quite large in both body and antler size. Large red deer stags, like the Caspian red deer or those of the Carpathian Mountains, may rival North American elk in size. Female red deer are much smaller than their male counterparts.
Only the stags have antlers, which start growing in the spring and are shed each year, usually at the end of winter. Antlers typically measure 71 cm (28 in) in total length and weigh 1 kg (2.2 lb), although large ones can grow to 115 cm (45 in) and weigh 5 kg (11 lb).[9] Antlers, which are made of bone, can grow at a rate of 2.5 cm (1 in) a day. A soft covering known as velvet helps to protect newly forming antlers in the spring. European red deer antlers are distinctive in being rather straight and rugose, with the fourth and fifth tines forming a "crown" or "cup" in larger males. Any tines in excess of the fourth and fifth tines grow radially from the cup, which are generally absent in the antlers of smaller red deer, such as Corsican red deer. Western European red deer antlers feature "bez" (second) tines that are either absent or smaller than the brow tines. However, bez tines occur frequently in Norwegian red deer. Antlers of Caspian red deer carry large bez tines and form less-developed cups than western European red deer, their antlers are thus more like the "throw back" top tines of the North American elk (C. canadensis), known as maraloid characteristics. A stag can (exceptionally) have antlers with no tines, and is then known as a switch. Similarly, a stag that does not grow antlers is a hummel. The antlers are testosterone-driven and as the stag's testosterone levels drop in the autumn, the velvet is shed and the antlers stop growing. With the approach of autumn, the antlers begin to calcify and the stags' testosterone production builds for the approaching rut (mating season).
