The Pampas Deer (Ozotoceros bezoarticus) occurs in insular populations in western, northern, and central Argentina, eastern Bolivia, central and southern Brazil, Paraguay, and Uruguay. The population size is uncertain but has declined due to habitat loss and hunting. Conservation efforts involve protected area management, restoration of suitable habitats, and anti-poaching measures.
