Alcelaphinae

Alcelaphinae (Wildbeest, Hartebeest, Bonteboks)


4 genera
7 species


Characteristics: These diurnal antelopes inhabit the plains and open woodlands of Africa, especially the Serengeti. The seasonal nature of the African grasslands forces wildebeest to make annual migrations. The main migration is in May, when around 1.5 million animals move from the plains to the woods; they return in November as summer rains water the plains.
