Mountain Bongo Tragelaphus eurycerus isaaci ©Laura Quick The mountain bongo is a critically endangered subspecies of the bongo, one of the largest, and most beautiful forest antelopes, with a reddish-brown coat, with black, white and yellow-white markings. These are among my favorite animals, when mature, both males and females have long, slightly spiraled horns. Bongos are rarely seen in large herds. #mountainbongo #tragelaphuseurycerus #tragelaphuseurycerusisaaci #©lauraquick #bovidae #artiodactyla #beautiful #africa #Kenya #highlands #ruminant #ungulate #unguligrade #losangeleszooandbotanicalgardens #losangeleszoo #lazoo #glaza #naturephotography #losangelesphotographer https://www.instagram.com/p/B9NHmO7nNtJ/?igshid=194qf08n3zi3b

There are only 100 of the critically-endangered Mountain Bongo antelope left in the wild in its native Kenya. But the only Mountain Bongo breeding program in the world is hoping to boost the species’ numbers. #mountainbongo #mountainbongoantelope #endangeredspecies #nearextinction #saveendangeredanimals #endangeredspeciesweek (at Somewhere in Kenya) https://www.instagram.com/p/B8GGKXLAWI0/?igshid=12b7tlrcsrbux
