About the Grey (Bush) Duiker (Sylvicapra grimmia)
The common grey duiker’s primary habitats are the wide open savannas and bordering tropical forests of Africa. Compared to other variations of the duiker, they have vertical horns and much longer legs, which allow them to run faster and for longer distances. The duiker is an omnivore, but it does tend to mostly diet on seeds and fruits, since it is very particular about consuming only the most nutricious parts of the plant.
