Portrait of an alert huemul
A wild male huemul with velvet antlers (Hippocamelus bisulcus), posing nicely for a portrait. The huemul, an endangered species, along with the condor, another threatened species, are featured on the Chilean coat of arms. This handsome buck was photographed near the Estero Mallines O Paso las Mulas, Carretera Austral, Patagonia.
