Bongo Antelope

Found in the dense rainforests of sub-Saharan Africa, the Bongo is one of the largest forest antelopes in the world, recognisable by its striking chestnut coat and bold white stripes. Its coat has a red pigment that rubs off on vegetation as it moves through the forest. Anecdotal reports suggest rain running off it may be red with pigment as well!
