San Francisco Zoo: Greater Kudu (1 pic below)

Alphabet Site: K is for Kudu!! :D

Would you just LOOK at this magnificent creature?!! What HORNS it has! These are one of my favorite antelopes, and it was so nice to get a picture of both an adult and a juvenile during my visit to the zoo!

From Wikipedia:
The greater kudu (Tragelaphus strepsiceros) is a woodland antelope found throughout eastern and southern Africa. Despite occupying such widespread territory, they are sparsely populated in most areas, due to a declining habitat, deforestation and poaching. The greater kudu is one of two species commonly known as kudu, the other being the lesser kudu, Tragelaphus imberbis.

There are not many antelopers that can do what a Kudu can do ...when it comes to growing horns!
