Quote:
The family was widespread and successful from the Oligocene (34 million years ago) through the Miocene (about 5 million years ago), but has remained almost unchanged over that time and remains as an example of primitive ruminant form. They have four-chambered stomachs to ferment tough plant foods, but the third chamber is poorly developed. Though most species feed exclusively on plant material, the water chevrotain occasionally takes insects and crabs, or scavenges meat and fish.[13] Like other ruminants, they lack upper incisors. They give birth to only a single young.

They’re a ruminant. Their digestion is mostly done by symbiotic microbes.

Zoos should go for these mini versions of animals more of the time. You could have vast herds of these little guys and still give them plenty of space to roam around, relative to their size.

Or just shrink all animals down to a couple inches in size. Like little giraffes and shit lol.

Scientists try to make it sound like they have mastered genetics, but until they can whip up a mini version of any old animal they are just playing around.
