Wildebeests, also known as gnus, are native to eastern and southern Africa. These grass-eating bovines travel in herds for safety, but don’t think that means they’re defenseless. Adults weigh around 600 pounds, can run up to 50 miles per hour, and both males and females sport heavy, curved horns on their heads.

The correct answer is Gnu.
