Fighting for the females

In my species, for most of the year the males and females live in separate groups. Between December and March, the males then try to conquer a group of females. They do this by fighting with each other!

Plant Eater

I eat mostly grass, but also bushes, flowers, seeds, leaves and buds. I live mostly on open grasslands, with low trees and bushes.
