It was great to see a fully grown male with beautiful horns (although he could use a shower:)). Not the easiest thing to get a clean shot of these robust deer because they don't like vehicles stopping around them. This guy gave me a few seconds before running away.
This doe is considerably smaller than the males and like most species of deer does not have antlers.. This individual was photographed in Gir National Park which was set up to protect the only asiatic lions left in the wild.

About Sambar:
Sambars prefer the dense cover of deciduous shrubs and grasses, although the exact nature of this varies enormously with the environment, because of their wide range across southern Asia
The sambar (Rusa unicolor) is a large deer native to the Indian Subcontinent and Southeast Asia. The appearance and the size of sambar vary widely across their range, which has led to considerable taxonomic confusion in the past; over forty different scientific synonyms have been used for the species.
Sambar are found in habitats ranging from tropical seasonal forests (tropical dry forests and seasonal moist evergreen forests), subtropical mixed forests (conifers, broadleaf deciduous, and broadleaf evergreen tree species) to tropical rainforests.They are seldom found far from water. Sambar primarily live in woodland and feed on a wide variety of vegetation, including grasses, foliage, browse, fruit, and water plants, depending on the local habitat.
