Midrash for Chullin 126:20
ופליגא דרבי אבהו דא"ר אבהו
And a Tanna [has also] taught: It [the ayyah] stands in Babylon and espies carrion in the land of Israel.
Sifrei Devarim
And we are taught that the unclean beasts (and animals) are more numerous than the clean ones; for in all places Scripture specifies the lesser, viz. (Devarim, Ibid.) "This is the beast that you may eat … (5) the hart, the gazelle, and the fallow deer."
