Young blue wildebeest (Connochaetes taurinus), or brindled gnu, running. This antelope inhabits the plains and woodlands of south-eastern and eastern Africa, grazing on fresh grass. One calf is born after a gestation of 8 to 8.5 months. The calf is able to stand after only six minutes and able to run and keep up with the herd after a matter of hours. At eight months old the calf will leave its mother to join a peer group. This antelope is a social animal, living in herds numbering several thousand.

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of youthful energy and freedom in the African savanna. A group of young blue wildebeest, also known as brindled gnu, are seen running gracefully across the grasslands of the Serengeti National Park in Tanzania. These magnificent antelopes, Connochaetes taurinus, thrive in the plains and woodlands of southeastern and eastern Africa. The image showcases a single calf among them, symbolizing new life and growth within this social species. After an 8 to 8.5 month gestation period, these resilient creatures give birth to one calf at a time. Astonishingly, within six minutes after birth, the newborn is able to stand on its own feet and soon starts running alongside its herd mates. As they bound effortlessly through their natural habitat with their characteristic leaping strides, it becomes evident that these herbivores have adapted perfectly to grazing on fresh grasses found abundantly in this region. At around eight months old, the young wildebeest will leave its mother's side to join a peer group. Living in herds numbering several thousand individuals, these blue wildebeests exemplify unity and strength in numbers. Their presence adds vitality to the picturesque landscapes of Africa's grassy plains while contributing significantly to maintaining ecological balance. This remarkable photograph by Science Photo Library encapsulates not only nature's beauty but also highlights the resilience and interconnectedness found within our diverse animal kingdom.
