Kenya Reedbuck

Kenya Reedbuck, Redunca redunca, is a grass-eater with very good sight, hearing and sense of smell.

When disturbed it lies flat with its neck stretched and then leaps up at the last moment. It is important for Reedbuck to have a ready supply of water and they are territorial with an old male defending a small number of females.

Kenya Reedbuck can be seen quite readily atLake Nakuru while the Mountain Reedbuck, Redunca fulvorufula can be seen on slopes at higher altitudes.
