    Would a female gnu be called a ewe?

    Question #121031. Asked by 29CoveRoad. (Apr 09 11 12:50 PM)

    		There is no specific female term for the gnu or wildebeest given below but as a gnu is an antelope, "doe" would be the logical term.

    However with large deer and antelope such as elk the term "cow" is often used and that would seem to be the case here.
