The Nigerian Bohor Reedbuck is a subspecies of the Bohor Reedbuck, a medium-sized antelope. It's characterized by its reddish-brown coat, white underbelly, and curved horns in mature males.
As its name suggests, the Nigerian Bohor Reedbuck is primarily found in Nigeria, particularly in the protected areas of West Africa.
This subspecies is distinguished by its size, coloration, and the region it inhabits. The Nigerian variety tends to have a slightly darker coat than its counterparts from other regions.
They thrive in wetter habitats such as floodplains, swamps, and grasslands near permanent water sources where they can access their primary food source, grasses.
Besides natural predators like lions and leopards, human-related activities such as poaching and habitat destruction due to agriculture are significant threats.
Typically, they are solitary or live in small family units. The males are territorial and mark their territory with scent glands located below their eyes.
"Bohor" possibly has origins in local dialects from Africa. It's important to note that naming conventions can often derive from indigenous languages and terms associated with the animal's behavior or habitat.
They are under threat primarily due to habitat loss and poaching. Conservation measures are being taken in Nigeria and other West African countries to protect these antelopes.
Primarily grazers, they feed on a variety of grasses, especially those found in their preferred wetland habitats.
