Waterbuck at Brookfield Zoo

Brookfield Zoo Animal Pictures

The waterbuck are located in the "Hoofed Animals" exhibit at the north end of the zoo. At first I felt bad because there were not any ponds or anything in the waterbuck enclosure, but a helpful zoo docent explained that despite their name waterbuck don't like water all that much, and only use it to escape predators -- and, of course, they have none at the zoo (that can reach them, anyway).
