The pudus (Mapudungun püdü or püdu, [4] Spanish: pudú, Spanish pronunciation: [puˈðu]) are two species of South American deer from the genus Pudu, and are the world's smallest deer.

[9] Pudus range in size from 32 to 44 centimeters (13 to 17 in) tall, and up to 85 centimeters (33 in) long. [10] The southern pudu is currently classified as near threatened, [11] while the northern pudu is classified as Data Deficient in the IUCN Red List. [12]
