Small Horny Ungulates

In the main hallway of the Las Vegas Natural History Museum are a number of glass cases displaying small ungulates. Y'know, deer ... from Africa, mostly. All of 'em have tiny sets of horns, and to be truthful, if a bunch of various species came bouncing around me at the same time, I couldn't tell a Suni from a Dik Dik from a Grysbok.

But that's okay. Because the museum did the identifying for me.

Check them out:


Suni

Oribi

Klipspringer

Steenbok

Salt's Dik Dik

Blue Duiker

Harvey's Red Duiker

Royal Antelope

Cape Grysbok
Tomorrow, the last of the Las Vegas Museum pictures. Tomorrow, we visit Egypt.
