Libralces was a genus of Eurasian deer that lived during the Pliocene period. The genus' main claim to fame are their 2+ meter wide antlers, comparable in size with those of Megaloceros. According to Jordi Agustin, Libracles was the ancestor of Megaloceros, though, most other authorities regard it as a relative of moose, Alces.
Fossils of Libralces have been found from France to Tajikistan with best known the French L. gallicus.
