Bushbuck

Description:

Stockily built, with short neck and legs. Colour and markings vary with sex and locality and between individuals. In southern South Africa males are dark brown with a few white spots on the flanks and thighs, and a crest of yellowish hair down the middle of the back. In all forms there is a white patch high on the throat and a white band at the base of the neck.

Habitat:

Dense cover in the underbush of woodland and forest
