From the heart of Liechtenstein? No, from Lichtenstein's Hartebeest (Alcelaphus lichtensteinii). Not a wildebeest. WWF maximum cards/ maxicards/ dorincards about Mozambic.


This is a set with controversial issues. Why is the upper left image showing a far-away animal? What's this about - Big Sky Montana? The sky occupies most of the image.
Or, it can be the photographer's artistic choice to show us a perspective of that habitat, leaving the animal in the background. The cloudy sky over the African savannah...or something.

"Lichtenstein's Hartebeest (Alcelaphus lichtensteinii)[2] is a savannah and floodplain dwelling antelope found in southern Central Africa. By some, this species is classified as Sigmoceros lichtensteinii."

No, we're not talking about the country Liechtenstein here.
