After lunch and a siesta on August 13, 2012, Brad and I walked from our lodge to the reception/dining area where we boarded a safari vehicle to begin our hunt for Hartmann's Mountain Zebra, Equus zebra hartmannae. We photographed this Steinbock (a.k.a. Steinbuck, Steenbok), Raphicerus campestris, as it froze in mid-stride when we drove by it. The Steinbock is a small antelope of southern and eastern Africa and is between 45-60 cm at the shoulder. The male, shown here, has straight, smooth, parallel horns that are 7-19 cm long. Note the black circular scent-gland in front of the eye. Temperatures were in the low 90's on this clear afternoon.
