Native to Bangladesh, Bhutan, Cambodia, India, Nepal and Pakistan (Timmins et al. 2012). The Hog Deer was considered as an extinct species in Bangladesh (IUCN Bangladesh 2000). It has been disappeared from the Sundarbans (Salter 1984) and has not been reported from the Sylhet District, in the northeast, since the 1970s (Khan 2004). After a long period with no records, an animal was trapped by local people in 2002 (Khan 2004). Further surveys suggested that a few Hog Deer remained in the Chitagong Hill Tracts of the southeast (Khan 2004, Khan 2015). Recently five individuals have been collected from Chittagong Hill Tracts and kept in Bangabandhu Safari Park, Dulahazara.
