Waterbuck

whose behind reminds one of a toilet seat.

It is a target for the young to follow while in dense bush and keep the group together during flight.

That’s amazing!

[KoalaGardens🐨]

oh that target marking!

[Issi Bannerman]

Lovey capture of the two of them and their butts!

[Christina]

Bullseye!

[Susan Wakely]

I was thinking a target until I read your narrative.

[Gosia]

Nature is clever

[winghong_ho]

Interesting and funny to know why there is a white circle behind the waterbuck.

[Valerie Chesney]

How amazing & so interesting..

[Lou Ann]

Well that’s amazing!

[Kathy A]

Those targets gave me a laugh when I was there

[Mags]

Interesting info and capture!

[katy]

How funny! Like the others I thought it looked more like a target but I like your description better. Terrific capture of these two and their toilet seats!

[Allison Maltese]

That circle on their butts would be a target for more than the young I think. I wonder how they evolved that way without incident.

[Ashley]

Well, now, THAT’S something you don’t see every day!!! 😂😂😂

[LManning (Laura)]

The things you learn on 365! LOL.

[Elisabeth Sæter]

Great shot

[Heather]

Fascinating info and a nice shot! Fav

[Corinne C]

Great info. I'm fascinated by all these unusual animals and their beauty

[Ann H. LeFevre]

I immediately thought target as well. I guess in a way it is, but this seems to be a clever way nature has designed for children not to lose sight of their parents (instead of the other way around where parents keep an eye on their young).

Interesting. Great shot.
