Nyala Bull : rather hairy, isn’t it?
P1020433.JPG
This antelope inhabits dense bush and riverine areas covered in vegetation. The nyala is relatively similar to the kudu, and females are often confused with the bushbuck. Males are completely different from females both in terms of coat (dark and shaggy) and horns (females don’t have any).

With antelope depending on the size, you would either talk about a bull and a cow, or a ram and ewe. In the case of the Nyala, the bull is so much larger and so much more imposing that this is the only specie where one speaks of a Bull and an ewe

Nyala can reach 54 to 130kg of weight and yes Males are much larger than females.
Females are more the size of a Bushbuck ewe.
