About Bay duiker
The bay duiker also known as the black-Backed duiker is a forest dwelling duiker found in Gabon, southern Cameroon and northern Congo as well as Sierra Leone, Liberia, and the southern parts of Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana and Benin. It is believed by some to be a subspecies of Ogilby's duiker. Bay duikers live in dense rainforest, where they eat mainly plants, but also insects, eggs and small birds. Bay duiker are nocturnal, spending the days at rest in thickets, buttress roots or even inside hollow trees. They form regular pathways through the dense undergrowth. Bay duikers live alone or in pairs usually far from other bay duikers.Hunting Techniques
