Gnus, also known as wildebeests, are fascinating animals native to Africa. With their humped shoulders, long legs, and strange snouts, they have a unique appearance that will make your coloring page stand out! Gnus live in large herds and travel vast distances in search of food and water during the dry season. These herbivores primarily eat grasses but also enjoy foliage from trees and shrubs.
During mating season, male gnus engage in dramatic competitions for dominance called “streaking,” with the victor gaining access to mate with females. So grab your crayons and add some color to your Gnu coloring page! It’s sure to be a standout amongst all your other animal pages.
Did you know that gnus, also known as wildebeests, are excellent swimmers?
They often need to cross rivers during their migrations and are able to swim up to 10 miles at a time. Gnus live in large herds and have an unmistakable appearance, with their long faces and curved horns. These powerful beasts can weigh up to 600 pounds and stand over four feet tall at the shoulder. Gnus are capable of surviving on barely any water, getting most of their moisture from the plants they graze on.
In fact, they are able to eat about 100 pounds of grass per day! Gnus play a crucial role in keeping the grasslands healthy by grazing on different plants and dispersing seeds through their droppings. Next time you see a gnu, be sure to marvel at their impressive swimming abilities and vital role in their ecosystem.
