Kudus

 

Discover the unique beauty of Kudus, a species of African antelope recognized for their impressive spiral horns reaching up to 1.2 meters in male individuals. With a distinctive coat of brownish-grey featuring white stripes and spots, and a mane of long hair, Kudus are a sight to behold. As herbivores, they feed on leaves, fruits, and shrubs. Often solitary or found in small groups, Kudus are most active during dawn and dusk. These nimble creatures are also known for their incredible speed, capable of running at speeds up to 80 km/h when faced with predators.

Kudus are herbivorous animals that primarily feed on leaves, flowers, fruits, and twigs of various trees and shrubs. They are known to be selective browsers, preferring the leaves of certain species of trees and avoiding others. Kudus are also able to eat a range of vegetation that is unpalatable to other herbivores, such as plants with high levels of tannins. Some of the plants commonly eaten by kudus include acacia, combretum, and Terminalia species.
