Wildebeest Nap in the Shade

A big wildebeest rests in short grass, right under an umbrella-shaped acacia. His curved horns sweep like handlebars. He tucks his legs close and settles his heavy chest on the ground. Soft stripes ripple along his sides and a shaggy beard hangs from his neck.

Behind him, the acacia branches spread wide, stacking puffy leaf pads like little clouds. Small grass tufts pop up around his tail and hooves. His eyes look calm, as if he enjoys the cool shade. The whole scene feels quiet and warm, ready for bright savanna colors.

Fun Fact!

A wildebeest is a grazer, meaning its diet is almost entirely made up of short grasses.
