Scimitar-horned Oryx in the wild. This spiral-horned antelope’s coat is white with a red-brown chest and black markings on the forehead and down the length of the nose. The coat reflects the sun's rays, while the black portions and the tip of the tongue provide protection against sunburn. The white coat helps to reflect the heat of the desert. Photographed in London, United Kingdom.
