Kuruka

The Kuruka is one of the most common species of mammal on Candentia. It is coloured brown and white with a distinguishing black stripe. The males have long, often curved, horns. Like many other prey species, they exhibit a distinctive behaviour of stotting, when they are threatened by predators. It is one of the fastest animals on the planet. Kurukas has narrow habitat preferences, preferring short grassland with dry, sturdy foundation. It does, however, migrate into tall grassland and dense woodland. They are mixed feeders. In the wet seasons, they eat mainly fresh grasses, but during the dry seasons, they eat more browse, particularly foliage from bushes, forbs, and clovers
