Unidentified Gazelle

• by Jinnga

  I was about to identifully the gazelle thst is front and center here as a Grant's when I noticed the lack of black markings on the rump and fairly curved horns. This makes it look less like a Grant's to me, but I'm not sure. Does anyone know if this really is something different or if it's just me?
  Thanks!

  Actually, it does seem to be a Grant's (which I of course realize AFTER I have posted), but I guess now you can just enjoy it!

  Foreground is a Grant's and to left is a Thomson's, both adult males. Compare and contrast - note the different shapes of the white rump patches.
