It was quite a challenge composing images of this guy.

Sid,
I love the horns. Beautiful lighting, sharpness and colours. I have no knowledge of this species.

Cheers,

Hi Sid: I like the image you took.

However, I wonder if this animal is is someone's cow on a farm or ranch? Watusi, while exotic, are usually not found in the wild anymore. They are originally from Africa but are found throughout the US and Canada now too, on ranches.

If it is on a ranch then it is not really "wildlife".

Amazing horns on this animal. How does he hold his head up??? Not sure if this species still exists as a wild animal...

Steve,

I dont want to get into this Wildlife or Not wildlife discussion. I am sure we both have our own views regarding this. I respect that. For me he is a subject and I try to do my best to make a best image out of it.
