Mama Wildebeest and Wobbly Calf

Mama wildebeest leans down and brushes her nose against her new calf. His knobby knees bend as he takes careful steps, tail flicking at the air. Her curved horns frame a calm face, and the shaggy mane along her neck stands like grass in the wind.

Fine lines show ripples in their coats and the little tuft at each tail, ready for bright colors. The calf tucks close to her legs while she watches over him. Open space around them leaves room for tall grass, dusty hoofprints, or a big blue sky.

Fun Fact!

The horns of a young wildebeest are straight at first and begin to curve as the animal gets older.

Coloring Tips

  1. 1 Use a light tan for the calf and a deeper brown-gray for Mama to show their different ages.
  2. 2 Press harder for the dark mane and tail tip; keep the legs lighter for shine.
  3. 3 Shade the horns with gray, adding a tiny white stripe for a smooth gleam.
  4. 4 Draw tall green grass and a dusty trail under their hooves to place them on the savanna.
