Male black wildebeest have been reported to mate with female blue wildebeest and vice versa. [26] The differences in social behaviour and habitats have historically prevented interspecific hybridisation between the species, but hybridisation may occur when they are both confined within the same area.
Two male blue wildebeest fighting for dominance. Male blue wildebeest become sexually mature at about 2 years of age, while females can conceive at 16 months if adequately nourished. [8] [23] Nevertheless, most females do not start to breed until a year later. The mating season, which lasts for about 3 weeks, coincides with the end of the rainy ...
Male black wildebeest reach sexual maturity at the age of 3 years, but may mature at a younger age in captivity. Females first come into estrus and breed as yearlings or as 2-year-olds. [2] They breed only once in a year. [14] A dominant male black wildebeest has a harem of females and will not allow other males to mate with them.
The genitalia of the female closely resembles that of the male; the clitoris is shaped and positioned like a penis, a pseudo-penis, and is capable of erection. The female also possesses no external vagina (vaginal opening), as the labia are fused to form a pseudo- scrotum .
The average weight of a male is about 150 kg, and female is 120 kg. Their average shoulder height is 135 cm, and horns are 60 cm long. The life expectancy of a red hartebeest is around 19 years. [5] Little sexual dimorphism is noted between males and females, showing no distinct identifiable physical features, but body size is slightly affected ...

Once the male is assured that the female is in estrus, he begins courtship displays; these displays vary greatly from the elaborate marches among gregarious species to the fervent licking of female genitalia among solitary species. Females, initially not receptive, ultimately mates with the male which has achieved dominance over others.
