  • Two dark-matter deficient galaxies in the observations:

DF2 and DF4 in the NGC 1052 group

  • Seven dark-matter deficient galaxies in FIREbox

  • Satellites, tidal features, red

  • Three very close to their massive host

  • One very far away (“backsplash”)

  • Three in the same group

  • Wolf is the most similar to DF2 and DF4
