The wildebeest is actually a subspecies of the antelope, despite it's bull-like appearance. There are two known species of wildebeest, both of which are native to Africa. The changing African seasons mean the wildebeest must migrate south in the winter, so the wildebeest can continue to graze on grass.Thousands of wildebeest all tend to migrate at once creating a wildebeest stampede.The wildebeest is a primary source of prey for many large African mammals, that often pick out the weaker wildebeest from the outside of the herd.Wildebeest generally grow to around 1.5 tall but are relatively defenceless against dominant, carnivorous predators such as lions and crocodiles.here are two known species of wildebeest, both of which are native to Africa.
