Update on the Baby Bushbuck "Bossie" – November 2018

Six weeks ago,  we shared the news of a baby bushbuck that had been brought in our care at HESC. He arrived at HESC on the 28th September 2018.
We are happy to update you that he is doing very well, gained good weight, and becoming a strong young bushbuck. The curators refer to him as “Bossie”.

Baby Bushbuck November 2018

Bossie’s issues with his stomach have luckily passed, and he is already eating solid foods, such as teff, lucerne and boskos.  When he first arrived it was around the clock care, feeding him every three hours.

This adorable little bushbuck is full of beans, very active, and loves to be outside in the sunshine as much as possible.
We will keep you updated as he grows a little bigger and stronger in our care.
