Waterbuck

Description, Habitat And Population, Social Relationships



Waterbucks belong to the large family of bovids, plant-eating hooved animals with horns and a four-chambered stomach for extracting nutrients from a diet of grass or foliage. These ruminants regurgitate food that is rechewed (chewing the cud). Domestic cattle, also of the bovid family, chew their cud.
