Another rare yet beautiful species. Bulls are very territorial and will defend their territories aggressively against intruders. Young bulls at the age of between 15 to 18 months are aggressively chased away and if they are unable to escape, killed.
They are less vulnerable to disease than the Roan and can be found at various places in the Kruger National Park.
