Dark or red duiker?

  • Mercury82 by Mercury82

    I have seen several videos of duikers with black or dark head and front legs with quite a distinct change to red right after the shoulders. Which species is it? Or is it the light that is playing tricks on me?

    For example, here: ACP000c5ll

    That is, just as you described it, a #black-fronted_duiker -- classified more broadly as a #red_duiker 😃

    Thank you! I have been comparing it to all duikers listed in the guide, but couldn't find it. 😃 The name makes sense to me anyway 😉
