Apollo gave Cyparissus one of these creatures, though Cyparissus accidently killed it with a javelin. The Celtic fertility god Cernunnos was associated with these animals, and Finn mac Cumhail falls in love with the goddess Sadb, who was cursed into this form by a magician. Saraswati takes the form of a red one named Rohit, and in the Ramayana, Sita sends Rama to capture a golden version of this animal, which leads to her abduction by Ravana. Dain, Dvalin, Duneyr, and Durathor are the four of them that chew on Yggdrasil's leaves. Another one of these animals was chased for a whole year by Heracles before being captured, and Actaeon's dogs ate him after he was transformed into one of these for seeing Artemis bathing.
