golden gemsbok
Cabelas has a picture of a golden gemsbok in it's spring catalog. Where can the golden variety be found/hunted?

Yo! I saw the same picture, but to my knowledge this is not a true sub-specie. But rather a color phase like a blonde black bear.......wapiti7

Thanks for the link Mark. They are beautiful animals, but I don't think that I can swing $10k for a gemsbok.

You could try a search for York Safaris (Steenbokpan, Limpopo). Prepare for a big shock when the prices arrive!

Just leave your gemsbok mount in the sunlight and shortly it will look like this to. Wink

At first glance it apears to be a disfunctional recessive gene where the adult gemsbok remains the color of a calf.
