Description I recently photographed this Blesbuck (also known as Blesbok) in the Alverstone Wildlife Park near Durban, South Africa.

The blesbok  is an antelope endemic to South Africa. It has a distinctive white face and forehead which inspired the name, because bles is the Afrikaans word for a blaze such as one might see on the forehead of a horse.

Thanks and sorry about the language lesson.  I have quite a few Afrikaans friends on here and I just wanted to clarify for their sake.
