Natural History: The bontebok is primarily diurnal, although there is a lull in activity during the hottest part of the day. In the past, herds would migrate between seasonal pastures, congregating in large numbers during the fall and winter. As males approach maturity, they form territories about 25-100 acres / 10-40 hectares in size. After their establishment, these areas are marked with scrapes in the ground as well as secretions from the preorbital glands. However, the most prominent markings are several large dung middens spread around the territory, on which the owner often rests. A male generally remains on his territory year-round. Conflicts between neighboring males over territorial boundaries are rare, consisting primarily of ritualized parallel displays. Small herds of females and their young circulate through 2 or 3 individual territories during the breeding season. Hunting Characteristics:
