Definition
A South African antelope with a blue-gray coat that is now extinct.
Etymology
From 'blue' plus 'buck' (Dutch for deer/antelope, from German 'Bock'), referring to the animal's distinctive bluish-gray coloring. The name dates to European contact with South Africa.
Kelly Says
The bluebuck was hunted to extinction by the early 1800s and is one of the first large mammals to go extinct in recorded history—it's a stark reminder of how quickly human hunting can erase entire species.
