Antelope Pictures - Pg 1
The antelope pictures featured here, including photos of impala, kudu, red lechwe, nyala and springbok, were taken in a number of different national parks and game reserves in southern Africa.The graceful, elegant impala is prolific in South Africa's Kruger National Park and also in most other nature reserves in South Africa, Botswana, Zimbabwe, and Zambia.
Small groups of young bachelors can often be seen near the road, as can larger herds comprising a mature ram and his entourage of ewes.

Kudu bulls, with their magnificent spiral horns, and waterbuck, with the characteristic white ring round the rump, are also regularly sighted in the Kruger Park.
However, to get pictures of the red lechwe, one usually has to travel to Botswana's Okavango Delta as this antelope lives only in permanent swamps and wetlands.
The lechwe is a good swimmer and will rather take refuge in water than try to outrun its pursuers.
Makgadikgadi Pans
In sharp contrast to the lush Okavango Delta, Botswana's
Makgadikgadi Pans are totally arid in the dry season. The picture
of the springbok, a recent victim of one of the pan's predators,
was taken at sunset from a microlight.
The three photos of the Nyala bull (Row 5) were taken at a waterhole in Mkuzi Game Reserve in the north of KwaZulu-Natal.
The nyala is common in this area of South Africa, but if found sparingly in the Kruger National Park and further north into Zimbabwe and Mozambique and is regarded as a rare antelope.
Only the males carry the impressive ivory-tipped, lyre-shaped horns.
