Located in the undulating slopes and sprawling valley of the Lake Gardens. The authorities have dedicated a spot known as the Kuala Lumpur Deer Park to these gentle, intelligent creatures.
.
A well-chosen peaceful area that is more than 2ha in size has been turned into a suitable habitat for the deer. It is interesting to see hinds, does and fawns, representing some of the smaller species, roaming freely in the sprawling valley.
Perhaps Malaysia most famous deer, the rainforest mousedeer or kancil, can be seen here. The mousedeer is the world's smallest hoofed animal and a popular figure in local folklore due to its legendary wit. The Deer Park is a beautiful spot where the landscaping has been well thought out and lush trees and shrubs planted to ensure that the habitat is cooling and peaceful. There are also ponds around the park.
Visitors are allowed to mingle with these friendly and adorable deers. Much to visitor's delight, these friendly deer will usually come close to be fed as you watch them.
Open: 9am - 6pm (Daily) Admission: Free
