Sri-lanken spotted Chevrotain (or white spotted chevrotain)

The divide between the 3 spotted chevrotain species was only decided in the recent past. As such, most books refer to just once species. It is however, how pretty widely agreed that there are 3 species.

This species is found in the dry areas of Stri Lanka with the Yellow striped Chevrotain living in the rest of Sri Lanka.

Rarely seen in herds, they are generally found alone, or in pairs. They are considered least concern
