Bahati now lives with the rangers and is clearly very curious about the contents of Ninian’s car!eland is the world’s biggest antelope, tawny-colored with twisted horns they become gray or bluish-gray as they get older with some of the  oldest animals becoming almost black. They migrate in large herds and keep their young in nursery groups. In African Rock Art the animal that is most frequently depicted is the Eland, even today these majestic beasts still play an important role  in the mythology of some southern African tribes.
