Puku
The puku (''Kobus vardonii'') is an medium-sized antelope found in wet grasslands in southern Democratic Republic of Congo, Namibia, Tanzania, and Zambia.〔 Nearly one-third of their species is found in protected areas, zoos, and national parks due to their diminishing habitat.〔Jenkins, R., H. Maliti, G. Corti. 2003. Conservation of the puku antelope in the Kilombero Valley, Tanzania. Journal of Biodiversity and Conservation, 12: 787-797.〕〔Rodgers, W. 2008. Status of puku (Kobus vardoni Livingstone) in Tanzania. African Journal of Ecology, 22: 117-125.〕 ==Description== Puku stand about at the shoulder and weigh from . The puku is sandy brown in colour, with the underbelly a slightly lighter brown. The coat is rougher than the similar-sized southern reedbuck, lechwe or impala, or the smaller oribi. Males have 50-cm-long, ridge-structured horns which are very vaguely lyre-shaped.〔Skinner, J., C. Chimimba. 2005. The Mammals Of The Southern African Subregion.
