Waar om die Cape Grysbok in Suid-Afrika te sien

Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Cape Grysbok at stays in or beside Cederberg Wilderness Area, Goukamma Nature Reserve, Gamkaberg Nature Reserve, Addo Elephant National Park, Rocherpan Nature Reserve and Table Mountain National Park and other reserves. 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 Cape Grysbok is most recorded in Western Cape (95% of records), Eastern Cape (5% of records), based on 946 iNaturalist observations. 56 places to stay on Spekboom in South Africa have recorded the Cape Grysbok on site or nearby.

The Cape Grysbok 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. Cederberg Wilderness Area: Sep-Apr, flowers Aug-Oct; Goukamma Nature Reserve: year-round, warm Oct-Apr; Gamkaberg Nature Reserve: Autumn and spring, Mar-May, Sep-Nov; Addo Elephant National Park: year-round, best Mar-May, Sep-Nov. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.

The Cape Grysbok (Raphicerus melanotis) is listed as Least Concern on the IUCN Red List.
