Antlers are common among males which measures 20 to 40 cm. Variations in morphology were observed especially in Mindanao populations, but is still unknown at present. This species occurs in most parts of the country except in the Negros-Panay, Babuyan/Batanes, Palawan, Sulu Faunal Regions and other disjunct islets. Biliran, Bohol and Marinduque populations are believed to be extinct as a consequence of forest fragmentation. Meanwhile, the deer has been declared title: Visayan spotted deer text: Visayan spotted deer The Visayan spotted deer ("Rusa alfredi"), also known as the Philippine spotted deer or Prince Alfred's deer, is a nocturnal and endangered species of deer located primarily in the rainforests of the Visayan islands of Panay and Negros though it once roamed other islands such as Cebu, Guimaras, Leyte, Masbate, and Samar. It is one of three endemic deer species in the Philippines, although it was not recognized as a separate species until 1983. An estimated 2,500 mature individuals survived worldwide as of 1996, according to the IUCN, although it is uncertain of how many of them title: Philippine mouse-deer text: leather. Although no true estimates of the Philippine mouse-deer population have been made to date, they are assumed to be declining in numbers. Hunters have commented that the mouse-deer is becoming harder to find. The biggest reason for decline is habitat loss. The mouse-deer's habitat is being converted to agricultural lands for coconut plantations and other crops. It is fully protected under Philippine law, but enforcement of this protection is mostly ineffective. The Philippines do have what are called priority sites which protect the land. Currently, 18 priority sites are funded by Global Environment Facility/World Bank and the European Union. title: Philippine deer text: Philippine deer The Philippine brown deer ("Rusa marianna"), also known as Philippine sambar or simply Philippine deer, is a species of deer endemic in the islands of the Philippines. It was first described from introduced populations in Guam and the Marianas Islands, hence the specific name. Currently, four subspecies are known which includes: "R. m. marianna" in Luzon biogeographic region, "R. m. barandana" in Mindoro, "R. m. nigella" in isolated upland areas of Mindanao, and "R. m. nigricans" in lowland sites of Mindanao The Philippine brown deer is relatively smaller than its relative, sambar deer. Its head-and-body length and shoulder title: Philippine mouse-deer text: Philippine mouse-deer The Philippine mouse-deer (Tragulus nigricans), also known as the Balabac chevrotain or pilandok (in Filipino), is a small, nocturnal ruminant, which is endemic to Balabac and nearby smaller islands (Bugsuc and Ramos) southwest of Palawan in the Philippines. The genus "Tragulus" means 'little goat' and the Philippine mouse-deer has been named so due to the horizontal pupils of the eyes. This position of the pupil allows for an increase in peripheral depth perception. It has traditionally been considered a subspecies of the greater mouse-deer ("T. napu"). In 2004, though, "T. nigricans" was separated from "T. napu" as its
