Eland

Eland

There are 2 species of eland: the common eland and this very rare derby eland. Elands are the largest species of antelope reaching up to 6 feet at the shoulder and up to 13 feet long. These heavy built animals are graced by gently spiralled horns which can reach lengths of 4 feet. The eland is fairly unique as both the male and female have horns. The coat of the common eland is greyish brown; whereas that of the derby eland is a soft brown. MORE! [BM] {FW}
