Ungulates - hoofed mammals - are the most ecologically important herbivores on earth, shaping grasslands, woodlands, and savannas through their grazing and browsing behaviour. This gallery spans a diverse group, from three native British deer species - the Sika Deer, Red Deer, and Fallow Deer - to the sheer bulk of the Hippopotamus wallowing in an African waterhole.
Each profile documents habitat associations, herd behaviour, reproduction cycles, and conservation status, giving you the full picture of these remarkable animals.
