"The mountain nyala is Africa's most impressive antelope. Found only at high elevations in the Eastern Highlands of Ethiopia, this extremely muscular, spiral-horned ungulate is at home in dense Shefflera/Hagenia Forests and on heather-covered mountain tops. I found this kosso and bamboo forest in the Bale Mountains in an area called Odo Bulu. Nyala bulls seem to have a special affinity for bamboo forests, which can grow to extraordinary heights, making the perfect cover for these shy creatures." John Banovich
