Indian muntjac species to actually have antlers. Ancestor to muntjacs is the "Dicrocerus elegans" which is the oldest known deer to shed antlers. Other fossils found that deer species experienced a split of the Cervinae from the Muntiacinae, the latter of which remained of similar morphology. Muntjacs of this time during the Miocene were smaller than their modern counterparts. Molecular data has suggested that Indian and Fea’s muntjac share a common ancestor while giant muntjac are more closely related to Reeve’s muntjac. Although the muntjac deer has a long lineage, little has been studied in terms of their fossil record. The female
Creature animation earlier, in 1989, the pioneering digital animation studio Industrial Light & Magic created a water creature for the James Cameron film "The Abyss". Again, not knowing how a water creature might move, considerable effort was required by the animators to imagine how such a creature might perform and behave.
