The Greater Kudu

The Greater Kudu



It is one of the 2 largest antelopes in Africa. It is found in dry savannah wooded with acacia trees from which they feed.

Their grey-brown coat lined with light lines conceals them from predators although they are very powerful and can inflict severe wounds and even kill a Wild dog with a hoof kick.

This male though had just been attacked and its eyelid was hanging from the side of its right eye:
