another photo of Schomburgk's deer

is this the picture of Walkers or is it yet another ? It was also taken at Berlin Zoo in 1911 by Lothar Schlawe. Next to Berlin the species was also kept at Paris ( not the Zoo but the menagerie of the Nat. Hist. Museum ) and at Hamburg Zoo ( not Hagenbecks ) were it was even bred succesfully in 1870 !

      This is the commonly seen photo, yes. The Paris Natural History Museum also has the only mount of this species.

      A male Schomburgk’s deer, born in the old (pre-Hagenbeck’s) Hamburg Zoo was acquired by London Zoo in 1873.

      Although commonly claimed to have been taken in 1911, this photograph occurs in several of the guidebooks published at Zoo Berlin prior to said date - the earliest such occurrence being in 1901.
