Male Javan Rusa
Rare telephoto shot of a Javan Rusa buck. [MS018]
Javan Rusa are rarely seen in the open and are said to be very difficult to approach due to their keen senses and cautious instincts. This buck just proved that true by easily spotting the telephoto lens hidden in the bushes at a distance of at least 500m. When this lovely and defenseless creature was disappearing in the covert seconds later, I hoped it may ever spot a rifle just as rapidly.
