The first species of deer to be introduced into Australia was the chital (Indian spotted deer). It came to Australia in the early 1800s, brought by Dr. John Harris, surgeon to the New South Wales Corps, who sought to establish these animals in the farming industry. 400 chital were brought to Australia from Sri Lanka and India, but they did not survive. However, the move motivated others to also attempt deer farming for meat.
