The puku (Kobus vardonii) is a medium-sized antelope found in wet grasslands in southern Democratic Republic of Congo, Namibia, Tanzania, Zambia and more concentrated in the Okavango Delta in Botswana.[1] Nearly one-third of all puku are found in protected areas, zoos, and national parks due to their diminishing habitat.[2][3]
