Forward-hooked horns, calf born
in highlands exclusive harems
distinctive patterns as scarce
aggregates of bachelor males
curving backward in a darkening
arc of miombo short bodied
knock-kneed scraggly
next to the camel
Largely adapted as an extract
from plants like tussock grass
built rather small dewlap at jaw
equally long, subordinate
S-shaped horns forequarters
loping along, migratory
ridged horns, U-forms
offspring born
Waterless wards, sizable hoards
cow-like horns, knobby boss
somewhat longer returning to taller
spiral horned dorsal borders
spotted torsos, legs tawny thornbush
erect crest, flexing chevron X...
