BLACK FACED IMPALA

Michael Sheridan

BLACK FACED IMPALA

The beautiful Black Faced Impala is generally limited to Northern Namibia. While easy to observe in Etosha National Park, it is considered threatened because of its relatively small numbers and limited distribution. There is also thought to be the risk of interbreeding with the common impala which has been imported into game farms throughout Namibia.

BLACK FACED IMPALA belongs to the following groups:

Animal Portraits, Antlers, Racks, and Other Horned Animals, Endangered Species, Exotic Mammals and Top Shelf Wildlife & Nature Art Available for sale as

Greeting Cards, Matted Prints, Laminated Prints, Mounted Prints and Framed Prints

    This is a beautiful shot :) I’d love to know what lense you used to capture this.

  • Michael Sheridan replied

    Thanks, David. It was an 18 – 200 mm Nikon lens. The impala was very close – just a few yards away – and in full shade.

    Every time I see this, I catch my breath! Such a perfect portrait of this amazing creature.
    I’d think the WWF or some other conservation group would want it for their “poster child”!
    Best regards—

  • Michael Sheridan replied

    Thanks, Richard – glad you like the image. I was able to get very close to this Impala which may explain why the image is so sharp.
