That head looks rather large, even cartoonish.

I think that the large looking head is simply due to the angle from which the photograph was taken.

Is this animal over-stuffed? I've only seen Mouse-deer, but they're nothing like as fat as this, head or body.

I agree that this specimen does look rather too bulky; it’s certainly much heftier than the African water chevrotain from the Brussels Museum on the link below:-
