It is the smallest of all the deer kind, being only three feet four inches long, and somewhat more than two feet in height : the horns are from eight to nine inches long, upright, round, and divided into three branches; the body is covered with long hair; the lower part of each hair is ash colour; near the end is a narrow bar of black, and the point is yellow..."
