Caracals
are at home in a number of habitats. They are found in woodlands,
savannahs, and in scrub forests, but avoid sandy deserts. In Southern
Africa, this specie is more commonly found in upland areas. Caracals
typically use abandoned porcupine burrows and rock crevices for
maternal dens but can be found with their young in dense vegetation.
From head to tail, the caracal measures 830-1225mm, with the tail
accounting for 230-310 mm of this length. Their mass reches 13 to
19 kg's. Most notably, the caracal's ears, which are long and slender,
are topped by long tufts of black fur. Although mainly terrestrial,
they are excellent jumpers and climbers.
The
Gemsbok has dramatic facial masks with halter-like facial markings
paired with white patches. Black striping also extends along the
sides near the underbelly. A short mane runs from the head to the
shoulders. Ears are large and broad. The remainder of the body ranges
from a buffy tan color to brown. Males have a tuft of black hairs
on the throat. Horns are long and extend straight back from the
head and can reach a length of 150cm. The female horns tend to be
slender and longer than the males. They commonly found in arid areas,
including dry steppe, brush and tree savannahs in the flat and hilly
areas as well as semi-desert and desert.
The
Lechwe is found in the southern savanna of Africa more commonly
in Zambia and some along the rivers of Angola and Botswana. They
reach a mass of 60 to 128kg and a height of ranging from 90 to 112
cm. They are a chestnut like colour with white underparts and with
age the males darken in colour. The male and female lechwe are actually
seperate from each other for most of the year with the female herds
often changing.
Presently
the Bontebok is found only on game farms and reservations throughout
South Africa. They with the Blesbok occurred historically on grassy
plains which may or may not of had trees. They reach a mass of between
50 and 80 kg's. They have the same adult color pattern, relatively
dark dorsal pelage contrasting sharply with high, white stockings
and buttocks. Bontebok have a dark and glossy, purplish-brown dorsal
pelage, and the blesbok reddish-brown dorsal pelage. The Bontebok
mate mainly in February while the Blesbok mates mainly in April.
