another survivor

the black wildebeest (connochates gnou) was a typical gnou endemic in southern part of africa.

considered a pest from farmers and hunted for the meat it was almost brought to extinction.

almost at the end the human stupidity was stopped and the reintroduction/protection begun.

the easiest way to recognize black wildebeest from the common "blue wildebeest" is the white tail.
