Tragelaphus scriptus
A young male bushbuck (I believe; he didn’t have spots or stripes that I could see but he was fairly far off in the tall grass). This attractive antelope is normally seen singly or in pairs. The male is dark brown or chestnut, while the female is generally a pale reddish brown. The male has relatively small, straight horns and both sexes are marked with white spots and sometimes stripes, though the stripes are often indistinct.
Found in rain forests, montane forests, forest-savanna mosaics and bush savannaforest and woodland. Seen at Nairobi National Park
