African antelope Kobus ellipsiprymnus with
characteristic white ring marking on the
rump. It is about 2 m/6 ft long and 1.4 m/4.5
ft at the shoulder, and has long, coarse,
brown fur. The males have big horns with
corrugated surfaces. In spite of the name,
waterbuck are not confined to wet areas. The
defassa waterbuck Kobus defassa is similar
but with a large white rump patch.
