The gemsbok or gemsbuck (Oryx gazella) is a large antelope in the Oryx genus. It is native to the arid regions of Southern Africa, such as the Kalahari Desert. Some authorities formerly included the East African oryx as a subspecies.
The gemsbok is depicted on the coat of arms of Namibia, where the current population of the species is estimated at 373,000 individuals (Wikipedia).

Beautiful painting of the Gemsbok. I like how beautifully you integrated the various individuals into the composition, making use of the angles of the horns. I seem to focus in on the face of the big Gemsbok at the bottom, work upwards to the pair with locked horns, then to the smaller image at the left, finally ending up on the impressive face,
