Sicilian deer (SciiFii)

The Sicilian deer (Dama carburangelensis), similar to the Sardinian and Corsican deer (Cervus elaphus corsicanus), is a species of deer that has been extinct for several centuries, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced to Sicily to help boost biodiversity. The Sicilian deer evolved from ancient mainland species, and due to this, its antlers are less derived to those of mainland fallow deer. Similar to other insular large herbivores, it is smaller in size, usually being around 20% smaller than a mainland fallow deer. However, the antlers are still be quite impressive structure for display and interspecies combat. The Sicilian deer has a similar behavior, reproduction, and niche to those of mainland fallow deer. The conservation status of the Sicilian deer is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and its tolerance to o most of the human activities, similarly to the mainland fallow deer, being able to adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
