Description
I am not exactly sure what this is a photo of, but I think it is an eland which is in the antelope family. I took this photograph in Mooresville, NC at the Lazy K Ranch. I love this pose. A real classy antelope!
The Common Eland is considered the largest species of "antelope", though in many respects the Elands are quite bovine. Females have a tan coat, while males have a darker tan coat with a blueish-gray tinge; there may also be a series of white stripes vertically on the sides of bulls. (Taken from Lazy K Ranch Website).

Is this a mom with a baby?
Lydia Holly replied:
Constance, it looks like a mama, but if you read the description I think it says the male has the white stripes on the side.
