Klipspringer - a photo on Flickriver

Klipspringer

            early morning in Lake Manyara National Park, Tanzania

the Klipspringer is a small but stocky antelope living in rocky areas in Eastern and Southern Africa. It is mostly active during the night but can often be seen in the early morning. 
It is mostly a browser but on occasions it has been observed eating grass.
The image clearly shows the short and sharp horns of the male. The black patch visible underneath the eye is a preorbital gland.
