Eastern Bongo Antelope at Antwerp Zoo in Antwerp, Belgium

Only 100 of these critically endangered Eastern Bongos are left in the African jungles of central Kenya. This antelope, which is also called a mountain bongo, has brilliant white stripes that run down its reddish coat. Curiously, this red pigment can bleed in the rain. Both genders have pointed, twisted horns that don’t shed. The stance of facing away while turning their head back is a typical stance when threatened.
