Damara dik-dik

Madoqua damarensis

Description:

Tiny antilope; grizzled yellowish grey on the upperparts of the body, pale rusty on the face and top of the head, richer rusty on the shoulders and flanks. Pure white on the underparts. There is a tuft of long, orange-brown hair on the forehaed. The eyes are ringed with white and have large preorbital gland openings just in front of them.

Habitat:

Dense woodland and thicket with plenty of low shrubs

Notes:

It's the only time I saw it. I had to take the picture through the window glass while moving... hence the little clearness :(
