The Telegraph:
Amateur photographer Ingrid Bunse snapped this photograph of a waterbuck with lop-sided horns while on safari in the Ongava Wilderness Reserve, Namibia. She said: "When I spotted this animal I knew I had to get a picture because it was so unusual - I've never seen anything like it. I don't know what caused the horn to curl like this but it didn't seem to be too bothered by it."
It must have been that way a long time, judging by the way the tip of the horn has been burnished during grazing.
What a spectacularly handsome creature! I have a hard time seeing that curving horn as anything but a waterbuckish fashion statement designed to make him look dashing and elegant.

I keep thinking I'm seeing a bird on his lopsided horn, but then I realize it's his ear.
ReplyDeletePretty sure he was inspired by the musician Prince becoming a symbol.
ReplyDeleteReminds me of today's Bizarro cartoon.
