A herd of impala is usually made up of just one adult male and the rest are females and young. Here's a snapshot of part of this one male's herd.

It wasn't uncommon to also see groups of bachelor impalas. These are the ones that were lucky enough to not get stuck with the responsibility of having to look after a group of 20+ females and young. Hmmm... or did I get that last detail wrong? Was it supposed to be that these guys lost out?
