🐃Hartebeest
Koantilopen (Alcelaphus buselaphus), også kaldet kongoni eller almindelig hartebeest, er en stor og kraftigt bygget antilope, der lever på tørre savanner i Afrika. Den er et populært jagtvildt på grund af det velsmagende kød. Navnet hartebeest kommer fra afrikaans og betyder "hjortedyr", af hert/hart = hjort, beest = dyr.
