View from the dentist's chair 🧐 The Ugandan kob (Kobus kob thomasi) is one of three subspecies of kob antelope. The male is distinguishable from the female by its heavily ridged horns and bulkier figure. Kobs live in herds which can vastly vary in size, and prefer to remain in open habitats that are close to water, such as grasslands and floodplains. They form permanent breeding territories called 'leks', which females approach to find a mate. #EarthCapture by hannah_in_the_wild . . . . #bbcearth #ugandankob #mammals #landmammals #amazingphotography #wildlife #wildlifephotography #naturephotography #amazinganimals #nature #naturelovers #earth #earthlovers
