Re: Extraordinary mutation of Thompson's gazelle - or fake?
Oh My, you would love to say fake but he is a credible photographer so there is the chance its genuine and the picture has been checked thoroughly as they say.
It could lead him to stand out and be more at chance of being had by the big hunters but then again it may confuse them and he could fair better, who knows.
If it is true, he looks very cute I think.

I've seen this somewhere on FB (I think) and i guess these things do happen - looks like he's in his winter coat and better suited to the himalayas!

The face reminds me of a goat. Hybred maybe?

Weird !!! The other Gazelle is looking at him as though to say "mmmmm there's something just not quite right with you" !!!

To me he still looks very cute and I get a cheeky feel about him, I reckon he is a real character

How wonderful that he is still alive, maybe his uniqueness is going in his favour and he is being left alone by predators. It's lovely to see him again and hopefully other safari goers will keep photographing him so we are able to get updates on him.
Thanks for posting the good news WS

Wonder if he will still be around next year when AM, myself and possibly Lai go :?: Would be great if one of us could get a picture of him :)

Doogs that is one hard request for us all - wouldnt that just be so cool? When our guides say where shall we go today and what shall we look for and we tell them about the bearded gazelle, they would find that so so funny!
