They are small, shy, solitary antelope that browse on leaves, buds, herbs and fruits in the dry season. Grass comprises 30% of their diet. Their average mass is 12 kilograms and they grow about 40 centimetres high. Ewes are slightly larger than rams. They are often confused with the steenbok or Cape grysbok. This grysbok was found south of Olifants Rest Camp in the Kruger National Park.
