Cape or Southern Grysbuck [Raphicerus melanotis]

The Cape Grysbuck is a small, shy antelope with a thick-set body and a coarse coat of hair. A mingling of white and reddish hair on the back and sides gives this species a grizzled, reddish appearance. Only males have horns which are 60-80 mm in length, with a slight forward curve, standing vertical on the head. The Cape Grysbuck stands 540 mm at the shoulder and adults weigh 10 kg.
