>> Wildebeest… i checked it - and indeed, both in Dutch and in Afrikaans, it means the same thing - wild beast. Was probably an early name applied by the early Dutch migrants in Africa to all the numerous breeds of antelopes and similar animals roaming the region. Ha. I don't know what the technical name of that big bull was. But there was something magnificent about him getting up and walking away with a hole in his back as though it really just didn't bother him much ;)
