Pilandok, also known as the Philippine mouse-deer or "pilandok," is a small, nocturnal mammal native to the Philippines. It belongs to the family Tragulidae and is characterized by its slender body, short legs, and large ears.

Despite its deer-like appearance, it is more closely related to antelopes and is known for its elusive nature.
