Midrash for Chullin 126:25
מדראה היינו איה מכלל דדאה לאו היינו ראה
It was taught: Issi B'Judah says: In the East there are one hundred unclean birds all of the species of ayyah.
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."
