Curving Horns of the Wildebeest

A strong wildebeest leans in from the side. His great horns sweep up in smooth curves, almost like giant question marks. Tufts of mane tumble down his neck in pointed strands. His eye glints softly, and one ear tilts forward as he listens.

Bold lines leave wide spaces to color. His long nose ends in two bean-shaped nostrils, and a low lip rounds the muzzle. Gentle cheek curves meet sharp mane lines, giving him a ruffled, wind-brushed look. He seems to be thinking very hard, the way grown-ups do when they forget where they put the snacks.

Fun Fact!

A wildebeest has a front-heavy appearance because its front shoulders are much larger and more muscular than its hindquarters.
