Tragelaphus strepsiceros : ウィキペディア英語版 | Greater kudu
The greater kudu (''Tragelaphus strepsiceros'') is a woodland antelope found throughout eastern and southern Africa. Despite occupying such widespread territory, they are sparsely populated in most areas, due to a declining habitat, deforestation and poaching. The greater kudu is one of two species commonly known as kudu, the other being the lesser kudu, ''T. imberbis''. ==Etymology of the name == Kudu, or koodoo, is the Khoikhoi name for this antelope. ''Tragos'' (Greek) denotes a he-goat and ''elaphos'' (Greek) a deer. ''Strepho'' (Greek) means "twist", and ''strephis'' is "twisting". ''Keras'' (Greek) refers to the horn of the animal.〔(【引用サイトリンク】author=Brent Huffman )〕
