Nilgai

Readers,
This is the largest antelope of this region. It is called blue bull or nilgai (Boselaphus tragocamelus). 
It is blueish-grey in colour and has horns, this means it is an adult male. The females and the young ones are of orange-tawny colour and don't have horns. 
These animals are seen solitary, in pair or in small herds. They often enter the farms and spoil the crop.
