The waterbuck (Kobus ellipsiprymnus) is a large antelope found widely in sub-Saharan Africa.
Recorded year-round
Recorded in every month, so no month is the wrong month to look. We would rather say that than invent a best time.
Curve from 4,057 national iNaturalist observations, not from one property and not from this province. Single-month spikes are discarded as upload artefacts, and below 50 records we show no curve at all.

Donkerder maande is elke park se eie beste seisoen, wanneer yl bos of skaars water dit makliker maak om te kyk. 'n Waarneming is nooit gewaarborg nie.

iNaturalist-waarnemings
Elke bespreking op Spekboom ondersteun bewaring.
'n Aantekening beteken 'n gasheer het die Waterbuck op die eiendom of naby gesien. Dit is nooit 'n waarborg van 'n waarneming nie.
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Waterbuck at stays in or beside Kruger National Park, Sabi Sand Game Reserve and Timbavati Private Nature Reserve. A record means a host has seen it on the property or nearby, which makes these the places to base yourself; it is never a guarantee of a sighting on any given day.
The Waterbuck is most recorded in Mpumalanga (38% of records), Limpopo (27% of records), KwaZulu-Natal (14% of records), based on 4 057 iNaturalist observations. 16 places to stay on Spekboom in Mpumalanga have recorded the Waterbuck on site or nearby.
The Waterbuck is recorded throughout the year, so no month is the wrong month to look for it. For the parks where hosts record it most, these are the best seasons they give. Kruger National Park: Apr-Sep; Sabi Sand Game Reserve: year-round, dry season May-Sep optimal; Timbavati Private Nature Reserve: May-Sep, dry season. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
