Yes, or Mt. Bushbuck. It's most closely related to Bushbuck.

Rich, that one looks so big I believe it could almost pass for a kudu! Congrats!

Wilderness is my cathedral, and hunting is my prayer.

Beautiful! Their body size does appear to be more like that of a kudu than a common nyala.

Ann,
They are about the size of a spike elk...much, much bigger than the Southern Nyala.
It gives me the hives when I see a Mt Nyala done life size using a SOuthern Nyala form and I've seen it more times than I'd like to remember. CRYBABY
