The Nyala is a spiral-horned antelope native to southern Africa. A shy animal, it prefers water holes rather than open spaces. They are very cautious creatures. Old males live alone, but single sex or mixed family groups of up to 10 individuals can be found. They inhabit thickets within dense and dry savanna woodlands. The main predators of the nyala are lion, leopard and Cape hunting dog, while baboons and raptorial birds hunt for the juveniles. The nyala's range include: Malawi, Mozambique, South Africa, Swaziland and Zimbabwe.
