[Illustration]
This stag whose forms are extremely fine and graceful, inhabits the
forests of Brazil. Its size is about the same as that of our stag.
Its skin the color of which never changes, is of a brownish fallow,
being rather lighter towards the abdomen, the posterior part of the
thighs and the tail. The inferior surface of the lower jaw, the part
above and below the eyes, the interior of the ears and the abdomen are
white; a black line encircles the jaws and gradually disappears under
the lower one. The eyes of the guazouti are black, it has no canine
teeth; its mouth, which is very slender, tapers to a muzzle. The horns
which, in every case, are not very high and extremely regular, are at
first straight; they curve forward in the second year, send forth three
antlers, the anterior being placed about two inches above the burr,
which is turned a little inward, and the other two at the superior and
posterior part of the staff. The horns become bigger as they grow older,
but the number of antlers remains the same. We triturate the skin, which
should be used fresh and covered with the hair.
