Effects of the social organization of waterbuck Kobus ellipsiprymnus ellipsiprymnus (Ogilby 1833) on forage‐habitat utilization in a Rhodesian game park

African Journal of Ecology, 1981
SummaryThe social organization of waterbuck in a Rhodesian game park has a profound effect on the spatial and forage‐habitat utilization by different social groups. Territorial behaviour effectively prevents bachelor groups from using high quality food resources in recently burnt areas and in certain zones of the shoreline community.

Territorial defence and territory take-over by satellite males in the waterbuck Kobus ellipsiprymnus (Bovidae)

Behavioral Ecology and Sociobiology, 1981
In Lake Nakuru National Park, Kenya, some territorial male waterbuck tolerate an additional adult male on the territory, which shares in the defence of the territory and has a higher chance than an outsider to become a territory owner.

The waterbuck Kobus ellipsiprymnus defassa (Ruppel 1835) as an indicator of ecosystem health in the Central Rift Valley lake systems of Kenya

African Journal of Ecology, 2002
The use of free ranging mammals in monitoring ecosystem health has been suggested (Costanza, Norton & Haskell, 1992). In Lake Nakuru National Park of Kenya, a high frequency of dental abnormalities has been reported in the waterbuck (Foley & Atkinson, 1984).

Animal Health Problems Attributed to Environmental Contamination in Lake Nakuru National Park, Kenya: A Case Study on Heavy Metal Poisoning in the Waterbuck Kobus ellipsiprymnus defassa (Ruppel 1835)

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2006
A study was conducted in which samples of soil, forage, as well as serum, bone, kidney, and liver of waterbuck were collected from Lake Nakuru National Park. The objective was to determine the ecosystem health status in order to establish the causes of animal health problems previously recorded in some sections of the Park.

Territory Holders, Satellite Males and Bachelor Males in a High Density Population of Waterbuck (Kobus ellipsiprymnus) and their Associations with Conspecifics1)

Zeitschrift für Tierpsychologie, 2010
Abstract The behaviour of waterbuck Kobus ellipsiprymnus was studied at Lake Nakuru National Park, Kenya. Lake Nakuru NP has the highest known population density of waterbuck. At any moment, only 7% of the adult males held a territory. Only about 20% of the males surviving to prime age were likely to become territory owners during their lifetime ...
