"
Meet the kancil (mousedeer), the smallest hoofed animal, and a legendary character in Malaysian folktales."
Apart from the Bird Park, Butterfly Park and Orchid Garden, the Deer Park is another attraction in the vicinity of the Lake Garden. In this park, deers roam freely, oblivious of the visitors.
They are, however, very tame and accustomed to being fed by visitors. The main attraction here is the kancil (mousedeer), the smallest hoofed animal, and a very popular character in Malaysian folktales for its cunning wit. According to the legend, despite its small size, the kancil was able to fool many other greater animals such as the tiger, the crocodile and the snake.
