Natal red duiker — size comparison — facts and sources

The Natal red duiker uses forests and dense scrub, including riverine and coastal areas.

It seeks food near the forest floor, eating fallen leaves, fruit, flowers and other nutritious plant parts. This feeding depends on resources overhead: fruiting trees and seasonal vegetation changes.

It may be active by day, with feeding peaks in the morning and evening. It rests in dense cover. It can be solitary, and its home range may overlap those of others.
