It's a Pere David deer. They are from China and were nearly extinct not that many years ago but were saved by a French priest who the deer are named after. The largest herd in the world now resides in Texas. They are really big animals (only slightly smaller than elk) and spend a lot of their time in or near the water much like moose. Baker
