Puku
Kobus vardonii
-12.957, 33.1852
Field Notes
Description:
A medium sized antelope, very similar to the Kob and Lechwe. Kasungu National Park is the only park in Malawi where Puku currently occur. "Our" group of puku have become quite used to us, but it was still a special occasion when this female jumped out of the bush only a few meters away. We looked at each other for a few minutes, giving time to Terry & Jill to take her picture. I always think these animals have some kind of underrated beauty.
Habitat:
Grassland type habitats in miombo woodland
