Southern Oribi (Ourebia ourebi ssp. ourebi)Observer
kangwaneDescription
Single and small groups of oribi were fairly common on the higher areas of the Lubombos at least until the late 1980s. It is suspected that the Lubombo populations might be extinct as a result of hunting. These sightings are recorded here to confirm their (former) existence.
