In the morning at the southern end of the Wuliang Mountains, silence prevails in Taiyanghe Provincial Nature Reserve. A couple of Indian muntjacs that look like deer turn up in the woods. A sensitive sense of smell helps them find food among the rotten foliage. Twigs, young leaves, flowers and fruits, all are the Indian muntjac's favorites.
