		Chital are a tropical or subtropical species with a strong habitat preference for woodland, forests, and clearings near waterways.
		Chital eat primarily grasses and vegetation, but also eat their shed antlers as a source of nutrients.
		For the langurs' part, the chital's superior sense of smell would seem to assist in early predator warning, and it is common to see langurs foraging on the ground in the presence of chital.

	SSAA - Chasin’ chital
		There was a time when chital deer were something of a stumbling block for all but the keenest of deer hunters.
		Because I’d hunted chital before, Graeme was to take the first animal and, quite reasonably, he wanted to ensure it was an animal he was happy with.
		It was 20 years since I’d taken a chital and he was quite a drought breaker - a nice, wide style head with almost perfect conformation and the antlers hard under their velvet covering.

		Chital is also the most numerous of the wild ungulates population, accounting for nearly 95 per cent of the nearly 51,000 wild ungulates that inhabit this park.
		Chital are found to associate with many animals, the most famous case of symbiosis (living together) in Gir is its relationship with the Langur monkeys, because both benefit mutually.
		One may notice that chital tend to feed close to where the Langurs are feeding because Langurs are known to be wasteful feeders and drop a lot of fruits and other vegetation that the Chital get to eat.

	Australia's Wild Deer (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The chital was the first species of deer introduced into Australia in the early 1800s by Dr. John Harris, surgeon to the New South Wales Corps and he had about 400 of these animals on his property by 1813.
		Behaviourally, the chital is gregarious (a strong herding instinct) and, originating in tropical regions which do not have the extreme seasonal variations of Europe, is irregular in its breeding patterns.
		In behaviour, the hog deer differs from the chital in that while it may be seen in numbers on attractive feeding areas, it lives and acts as an individual.

		Chital are grazers, and spend a good portion of the average day feeding on grasses.
		At times, chital can be what scientists call secondary feeders, meaning that they eat their meals in the wake of other animals, such as monkeys and elephants.
		(Chital native to Anamalai have ample secondary feeding time.) Moreover, chital are known to have something of a more symbiotic relationship with certain monkeys.

		Chital stags had higher erythrocyte parameters (P less than 0.001) and lower erythrocyte indices than hinds, and the total leucocyte count was higher in stags (P less than 0.01).
		The major rutting period in February and March was characterised by changes in the differential leucocyte count, elevations in serum muscle enzymes, and lower serum cortisol levels.

	Density, Activity Patterns and Foraging of Chital and Livestock in Gir
		The density of chital in Gir was estimated to be 21.8 (95 % CI 16.2 to 29.5) per km2.
		The ecological density of chital in different zones was: east 18.9 (10.3 to 34.7), central 21.5 (13.5 to 34.1) and west 38.8 (25.3 to 59.5) per km2.
		Since livestock shared chital habitat in Gir east and west (sanctuary areas) while central Gir was devoid of livestock (National Park area), the above analysis suggests that chital populations respond primarily to habitat and forage availability and not to livestock presence.
