| Last week, Ethan asked me to make a walkaround the KAIYODO bongo. I guess some of you could enjoy the pics too. Bongos are one of the largest of the forest antelopes. In addition to the deep chestnut colour of their coats, they have bright white stripes on their sides to help camouflage them from their enemies. Adults of both sexes are similar in size. Adult height is about 1.1 to 1.3 m at the shoulder and length is 2.15 to 3.15 m. Its large size puts it as the third largest in the Bovidae tribe of Strepsicerotini; behind both the Common and Greater Eland by about 300 kg (660 lb), and above the Greater Kudu by about 40 kg. They are found in dense tropical jungles with dense undergrowth up to an altitude of 4,000 meters in Central Africa. Bongos favour disturbed forest mosaics that provide fresh, low-level green vegetation.Such habitats may be promoted by heavy browsing by elephants, fires, flooding, tree-felling (natural or by logging) and fallowing. Mass bamboo die-off provides ideal habitat in East Africa. Ethan, I'm sorry for the delay... And now the pics

| holy crap.
thank you christophe.
beautiful figure and fantastic pictures.
(Kaiyodo animals are, right now, my favorite. I'm going mad over them. A couple days ago, the copper pheasant arrived and I just can't stop looking at it. Thank you not only for this set of pictures, but for the many other pictures of Kaiyodo figures you shared, pictures that helped me take notice of a marvelous line of animal models.) |
