wildebeest

A column of wildebeest cantered rigidly in the other direction—all spindly legs, candyfloss white beards, and sloping backs.

For the last half-hour I was too busy watching the manœuvres of the wildebeest bull, to take my gaze off him for a moment.

“Jaging de wildebeest” (hunting the gnoo) is a favourite pastime of the young boers.

Some hunters brought in three wildebeest and an antelope this morning and the whole tribe's feasting up.

They were moving stealthily, as though undecided whether to sample the dead wildebeest.

It is known among the hunters and colonists as “blauw wildebeest” (blue wild-ox).
