The nilgai or blue bull (; literally meaning "blue cow"; Boselaphus tragocamelus) is the largest Asian antelope and is endemic to the Indian subcontinent. The sole member of the genus Boselaphus, the species was described and given its binomial name by German zoologist Peter Simon Pallas in 1766. The nilgai stands 11.5 metres (3.34.9 ft) at the shoulder; males weigh 109288 kilograms (240635 lb), and the lighter females 100213 kilograms (220470 lb). A sturdy thin-legged antelope, the nilgai is characterised by a sloping back, a deep neck with a white patch on the throat, a short crest of hair along the neck terminating in a tuft, and white facial spots. A column of pendant coarse hair hangs from the dewlap ridge below the white patch. Sexual dimorphism is prominent while females and juveniles are orange to tawny, adult males have a bluish-grey coat. Only males possess horns, 1524 centimetres (5.99.4 in) long. * The nilgai is diurnal (active mainly during the day). The animals band togeth |
