Bushbuck
-The bushbuck has geometrically shaped white patches or spots on the
most mobile parts of the body – the ears, chin, tail, legs and neck.
Males (which have horns) make the markings more visible during highly
ritualized displays during which they arch their backs and walk in a
tense, high-stepping gait. These displays, used for impressing and
intimidating females and rival males, usually make fighting unnecessary.
The hierarchy among males is age-based; as they get older and the
chestnut color changes to dark brown, the white markings are more
conspicuous.
Only male bushbucks have horns, which are between 10 and 20 inches long
and grow straight back. At 10 months, young males sprout horns that are
strongly twisted and at maturity form the first loop of a spiral. Other
antelopes with spiral horns are sitatungas, bongos, elands and kudus.
