Nile lechwe (Kobus megaceros)

These antelope live in the swamps of Ethiopia and South Sudan, eating grasses and wild rice. Many live in the Sudd, a huge swamp surrounding the southern portion of the Nile river, hence the species’ name. They are also sexually dimorphic; the males are considerably darker than females.
