In the Manchurian Mountains cows weigh 150-180 kg and bulls weigh 200-250 kg, and bulls attain measurements of 1.5 m in height and 2.4 m in length. [1] [2] Manchurian wapiti are considered the smallest among the other elks, in other parts of Manchuria they may have larger sizes.
However, the Manchurian wapiti (C. c. xanthopygus) is clearly distinct from the Siberian forms, but not distinguishable from the Alashan wapiti. Still, due to the insufficient genetic material that rejects monophyly of C. canadensis , some researchers consider it premature to include the Manchurian wapiti as a true subspecies of wapiti, and ...

Manchurian sika deer The even-toed ungulates are ungulates whose weight is borne about equally by the third and fourth toes, rather than mostly or entirely by the third as in perissodactyls . There are about 220 artiodactyl species, including many that are of great economic importance to humans.
The Bactrian deer (Cervus hanglu bactrianus), also called the Bukhara deer, Bokhara deer, or Bactrian wapiti, is a lowland subspecies of Central Asian red deer native to Central Asia. It is similar in ecology to the related Yarkand deer ( C. h. yarkandensis ) in that it occupies riparian corridors surrounded by deserts.
The tiger is a carnivore and an apex predator feeding mainly on large and medium-sized ungulates, with a preference for sambar deer, Manchurian wapiti, barasingha, gaur and wild boar. [109] [110] [111] Abundance and body weight of prey species are assumed to be the main criteria for the tiger's prey selection, both inside and outside protected ...
Researchers have discovered that California ground squirrels engage in "carnivorous behaviors" when there is a temporary increase in prey.
The species does not meet any of the criteria that would categorise it as risking extinction but it is likely to do so in the future. LC: Least concern: There are no current identifiable risks to the species. DD: Data deficient: There is inadequate information to make an assessment of the risks to this species.
