  • The greater kudu Tragelaphus strepsiceros is a woodland antelope found throughout eastern and southern Africa. 
  • Despite occupying such widespread territory, they are sparsely populated in most areas due to declining habitat, deforestation, and poaching. 
  • The greater kudu is one of two species commonly known as kudu, the other being the lesser kudu T. imberbis.  
  • Greater kudus have a narrow body with long legs, and their coats can range from brown/bluish grey to reddish brown.  
  • They possess between 4 and 12 vertical white stripes along their torso. 
  • The head tends to be darker in colour than the rest of the body, and exhibits a small white chevron which runs between the eyes.  
  • Greater kudu bulls tend to be much larger than the cows, and vocalize much more, utilizing low grunts, clucks, humming, and gasping.  
  • The bulls also have beards running along their throats and large horns with two and a half twists,  which, were they to be straightened, would reach an average length of 120 cm 47 in, with the record being 187.64 cm 73.87 in.  
  • They diverge slightly as they slant back from the head.  
  • The horns do not begin to grow until the bull is between the ages of 6–12 months.  
  • The horns form the first spiral rotation at around 2 years of age, and not reaching the full two and a half rotations until they are 6 years old; occasionally they may even have 3 full turns.
