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 1,561 national iNaturalist observations, not from one property. Single-month spikes are discarded as upload artefacts, and below 50 records we show no curve at all.

Donkerder maanden zijn het beste seizoen van elk park, wanneer dunne begroeiing of schaars water het kijken makkelijker maakt. Een waarneming is nooit gegarandeerd.

iNaturalist-waarnemingen
Elke boeking op Spekboom steunt natuurbehoud.
Een waarneming betekent dat een gastheer de Gemsbok op of bij het terrein heeft gezien. Een waarneming is nooit gegarandeerd.
Hosts on Spekboom have recorded the Gemsbok at stays in or beside Madikwe Game 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 Gemsbok is most recorded in Northern Cape (50% of records), Western Cape (27% of records), Eastern Cape (9% of records), based on 1 562 iNaturalist observations. 1 place to stay on Spekboom in North West has recorded the Gemsbok on site or nearby.
The Gemsbok 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. Madikwe Game Reserve: Apr-Sep. In the dry months animals concentrate at water and the grass is short.
The gemsbok or gemsbuck (Oryx gazella) is a large antelope in the Oryx genus. It is native to the arid regions of Southern Africa, such as the Kalahari Desert. Some authorities formerly included the East African oryx as a subspecies.
