Side View Musk Deer with Long Thin Tusks

A single deer stands in side view, facing left, with two large rounded ears, a small dark nose, and one eye drawn with a little shine in it. Two long, thin tusks hang down from the upper jaw past the mouth, which makes this one different from most deer pages. The neck curves down into a smooth back, a rounded rump, and slim legs ending in small hooves. The back right leg is bent and lifted slightly as if the deer is mid-step. There is no background, so kids can focus on the animal alone. Try soft browns and warm grays for the coat, then leave the tusks white or pale cream. It's also a nice prompt for talking about how some deer have fangs instead of antlers. This printable works well for younger kids because the outlines are bold and the shapes are large.
