I am all ears

Portrait of a Female Southern Greater Kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros strepsiceros) while she was browsing leaves and shoots of forbs and shrubs in Okonjima Nature Reserve. The large ears are extremely sensitive to noise, making these shy antelope difficult to approach. Kudus are prodigious leapers; when stressed they are known to jump as high as 3.5 metres!
