Asia's largest antelope, the Blue Bull

            in a rocky and dry plateau area of Panna Tiger Reserve, Madhya Pradesh, India

Nilgai are Asia's largest antelopes with males weighing up to 275kgs (600lbs) and having a shoulder height of 160cm (well over 5 feet). 
These males are also called Blue Bulls because of the blueish shine on their coat and they have short but very sharp horns.
The females do not have horns and have a rufous color mixed with grey.
