Males also have large manes running along their throats, and large horns with two and a half twists, which, were they to be straightened, would reach a length of 1 metre on average.
Like many other antelope, male kudu can be found in bachelor groups, but they are more likely to be widespread. Males do not have long shows for dominance; it is usually quick and peaceful, consisting of one male giving the most lateral show, standing up front and making himself look big.when males do have a face off they will lock their horns and it will be a competition of whos the strongest puller, as you would notices their necks enlarge during the mating season, and sometimes the two males are unable to unlock their horns from each other and end up dying. Males are seen with females only in the mating season, where they'll only be in groups of 5-15 with their offspring.
