Good morning, All,
I’m wondering if there is a clear gap between where East Cape kudu and southern greater kudu exist? Or is there overlap? How does it work? Is it a gradual and imperceptible transition? Or are there places where two distinct kinds are present?
If I understand correctly, the two kinds of kudu I’m wondering about are technically both the same - southern greater kudu - yet the differences are obvious enough.
A really big East Cape kudu might be around 50”, but I think I have heard of occasional bulls hitting 60”.
Please don’t mistake my curiosity for a lack of respect for one kind or a fixation on inches. I am fascinated by all kudu and really enjoy being around them and learning about them.
Kind regards,
Ben
