Tsessebe

Post by Richprins »

This antelope has a bit of a tough history in SA, but seems to be doing well again! \O

It is at the Southern end of its range here, but very common further North!

A good indicator species, and rumoured to be the fastest antelope in Africa! :shock:

One of the best places to found Tsessebe in South Africa is Mokala National Park :-)

As per animal count 2012, there are 227 Tsessebe antelope in the Mokala National Park.
