In Real Life
Unfortunately, the Schomburgk's Deer was classified as extinct in 2006. The wild population of Schomburgk's deer was wiped out due to overhunting in 1932, and the final known Schomburgk's deer in captivity was killed in 1938. Some scientists are still hopeful that there are some still in the wild, but none have been found yet.
They were named in 1863, after Bangkok's British consul Richard H. Schomburgk. They mostly resided in Thailand, but were also reported to appear in China. They were brown with white undersides, and the antlers of the males would reach almost a meter long each.
They used to enjoy roaming swampy plains for food, but these were eventually turned into rice paddies by human encroachment. Forced out of their habitats, they had to find new homes that weren't subject to being hit by the occasional flooding. This meant they had to live on high ground, which made them easier to spot by hunters and accelerating their demise.
There are still collections of skulls and fur from the Schomburgk's deer scattered around the world, but the only place to see what one would have looked like as it lived is in the Paris Natural History Museum, where a taxidermy replica of the deer can be found in the The Room of Endangered and Extinct Species.
Trivia
- In 1991, antlers of this deer were discovered in a Chinese medicine shop in Lao.
