The kudus are two species of antelope of the genus Tragelaphus: • Lesser kudu, Tragelaphus imberbis, of eastern Africa • Greater kudu, Tragelaphus strepsiceros, of eastern and southern Africa The two species of the Kudus look quite similar, though Greaters are larger than the lesser kudu. A large adult male Greater Kudu stands over 5 ft. tall, and a large male Lesser Kudu stand about 4 ft. tall. Both species have long horns, which point upward and slightly back, and cud in a corkscrew shape.[1]
