Abstract:

The Southern Pudu has long been classified as Vulnerable by Red List™, however  some  successful breeding programs are ongoing for this species. Since the introduction of the International Studbook and the  European  conservation  breeding  program  for Pudu  pudu, a  stable  population  with  more  than  100 individuals  has  been  kept  at  zoos  in  Europe,  North  and  South  America.  Not  a  lot  is  known  about  this small deer and we will update soma data on the captive management of this species, including general husbandry, diet and reproduction. The new data is mostly very similar to that published by Schürer and Sliwa (2002) apart from the average life-span which has increased over the years.
