MRS GRAY’S KOB 
it has been met with is on the island opposite Taufikia, on the White Nile, 
and the most southerly another island not far north of Mongalla. Mrs 
Gray’s kobs run in large herds, and in their habits and mode of life show 
their close relationship to the lechwi. Just as in South -Central Africa the 
puku and the lechwi antelopes are often found living close together, but the 
latter are always or generally in flooded ground where they are knee or 
belly deep in water, whilst the former live on dry ground just outside the 
flooded areas, so on the Upper Nile and Bahr-el-Ghazal the white-eared 
kobs and Mrs Gray’s kobs live near together, but the former keep to 
dry ground, whilst the latter live with their feet and legs almost always in 
the water.
