South African Blesbok

South African Blesbok
The blesbok is a type of antelope that once roamed South Africa in huge herds. Hunted to near extinction, blesbok populations have rebounded in the second half of the 20th century. The bleskbok is characterized by a shining coat and a large white spot divided by a dark bar that runs from its forehead to nose.
