"The Gerenuk is a antelope found in East Africa. It can reach high branches better than other antelopes by standing on its hindlegs and elongating its neck; this helps it reach over 6 ft above the ground."

What Is Seldom Seen Species Sunday:
Seldom Seen Species Sunday is art challenge/project where on Sundays I'll post artwork featuring an animal that is rarely or never seen in media with a little bit of info taken from the web. This includes prehistoric creatures, extinct creatures and even commonly seen creatures with uncommonly seen color mutations.
Note: I'm not taking suggestions. If you want to take part in this art challenge. Feel free to do so! I encourage it! However, don't feel pressured to upload EVERY Sunday. I want this whole thing to be lax and fun above anything else.
