About the size of a large thin labrador, musk deer (Moschus chrysogaster) have speckled coarse fur and short stumpy tails. Their legs are longer at the back than the front. Adult males have prominent downward curving canine teeth, an unusual feature for a member of the deer family. Although they are known to survive in the the Machiara and Neelum valleys in Azad Kashmir, in the Gilgit area and the Palas Valley, Musk deer have become extremely rare. People trap and kill them to obtain a valuable pod containing musk which is sold for use in perfumes. Although trade in musk is controlled by the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES), enforcement is difficult and the survival of musk deer are in doubt.
