Iran miniature deer caught on camera

Iran's roe deer, known as Shouka, stands out as a gem in the Caspian Hyrcanian forests.

In the video, you can catch a glimpse of this miniature deer captured by a camera trap.

What makes the deer so special is that upon feeling danger, it makes a sound similar to a dog's bark.

The Caspian Hyrcanian Mixed Forests ecoregion is a narrow arc of dense forest located in Iran and a portion of Azerbaijan Republic.  The forests are a haven for rare and endangered species.
