Sri Lankan spotted chevrotain

Description:

There's this small wooded area right next to my home where i normally go to photograph butterflies and mainly birds. But one day i encountered this small species of deer known as the chevrotain or mouse deer. It was really shy and i had to stalk it for a long time to get close enough to photograph it. After a while it didnt seem to notice me much. Unfortunately it was one of my very first days with a DSLR and i didnt really know about ISO and and stuff so the the photos i took werent that good because of the low light. So i took a video footage too.

Notes:

Moschiola meminna is a species of even-toed ungulate in the chevrotain family (Tragulidae). Particularly in the old literature, M. meminna often refers to the spotted chevrotains as a whole. Today, the name is increasingly restricted to the Sri Lankan Spotted Chevrotain or White-spotted Chevrotain, with the Indian Spotted Chevrotain M. indica and/or the Yellow-striped Chevrotain M. kathygre treated as distinct species.
