You might think that there are no longer any animals in Hong Kong9in the zoos. But there are still about 36 different animals10there. One of the most interesting of Hong Kong's animals is the barking deer. These are beautiful little animals11a rich brown coat and a white patch (补丁) under the tail. They look like deer but they are much smaller. They are less than two feet12. They make a noise rather like a dog13. In Hong Kong the barking deer has only a real enemy--14.
