 Kalaliari desert it is common in many parts, and on the saltpans

 liamangwato to the Zambesi, it is also plentiful. In common 

 with the Genisbuck and Hartebeest, however, its northern range is 

 bounded by the thick forests which run east and west, south of the 

 Milbabe river. I believe that to the west of Lake Ngami it has a 

 more extensive range northwards."
