Bay Duiker Skull - The bay duiker, sometimes called the black-backed duiker, is native to the forests of Western and Central Africa. This nocturnal species is typically solitary except when breeding. Like most Bovids, duikers are primarily herbivorous, but this species has been observed feeding on birds, eggs and carrion. Main predators for the bay duiker include leopards, civets, crocodiles and occasionally bonobo.
