Explanation:

The barasingha (Rucervus duvaucelii), also called swamp deer, is a deer species distributed in the Indian subcontinent. Populations in northern and central India are fragmented, and two isolated populations occur in southwestern Nepal. It is extinct in Pakistan and Bangladesh.

The specific name commemorates the French naturalist Alfred Duvaucel.The swamp deer differs from all other Indian deer species in that the antlers carry more than three tines. Because of this distinctive character it is designated barah-singga, meaning "twelve-horned" in Hindustani. Mature stags usually have 10 to 14 tines, and some have been known to have up to 20. In Assamese, barasingha is called dolhorina; dol meaning swamp.
