Hartebeest (Alcelaphus buselaphus)

A unique antelope in its own genus. Note the elongated forehead from which the horns grow and the hunched back. These are the subspecies "A. b. caama" usually called "Red Hartebeest." Some authorities split it as a separate species called Cape Hartebeest. Males and females are similar, but the horns are usually larger and more complex on the bulls.
