Like other deer, male pudu’s lose their antlers and grow them again every year. The females give birth to tiny fawns that are usually less than 6 inches tall, but grow very quickly. They have 4 rows of light spots on their backs from their shoulders to their tails. Other spots on their sides help hide them. The pudu lives in small herds. However in the winter when snow covers the ground, its tracks can be found near places where people live.
