    Not topi, these are eland. The topi has a darker coat with black on the chest,shoulder and hips and the body slopes down from the neck to the rump.
    These 2 juveniles are probably just having a minor dominance scuffle as it is rare for a full on fight to occur. A dominant bull, with larger horns than here, usually just has to shake his head and horns for subordinates to yield.
