The chital or "spotted" dear has adapted well to uruguayan´s conditions since its first introduction. This kind of deer can sometimes be seen walking freely in different uruguayan forests that may be found along the countryside.
Woods These deers in particular were spotted at the "Parque Lecocq"'s reserve.
According to wikipedia, the word chital derives from the Bengali word Chitral (চিত্রল)/Chitra (চিত্রা), which means "spotted" and it has been named in this way because of the coat´s white spots.
