My essay on wildebeest

Wildebeests are a type of antelope native to eastern and Southern Africa. it’s a part of the bovine family. fossil records show that there was 2 different species that diverged 1 to 2 million years ago.

resulting in northern and Southern African subspecies. the blue subspecies remained in it’s original location

◦	The best way to tell the difference between a blue wildebeest and a black wildebeests is the colour. the blue wildebeest is the most abundant big game animal in east Africa. some of the animals do a annual migration  to areas  for grazing but not all wildebeest migrate.
◦	
◦	predators such as the spotted hyena,the lion,  wild dogs,  cheetahs,  leopards,  and human hunters eat the wildebeests. there’s still over one hundred and 50 million wildebeests in Africa 

Wildebeests can live up too 40 years old and can run up too 65 kilometres a hour or 40 miles a hour they can weigh up to 600 pounds and both male and females have horns

Interesting. Now I learned about Wildebeests, they’re interesting creatures.

I feel sorry for wildebeests, it seems like they’re a favorite snack for predators.

Same here. The only time I remember actually seeing a wildebeest is when they are prey on a nature documentary.

Yeah ikr If anyone wants me to do another animal you can comment on this thread but yeah here’s the thing animals as they get older weather it’s a wolf a bear a deer whatever they slow down and get ate that’s why animals in captivity like a zoo live longer because they don’t have hyenas eating them
