I thought that the western population of the Giant Eland (T. derbianus derbianus was more endangered because only a small population exists, and that the eastern population (T. derbianus gigas was more numerous. All of the Giant Eland I have seen in captivity was of the Eastern form

According to the IUCN Redlist assessments Tragelaphus derbianus ssp. gigas is as near threatened and Tragelaphus derbianus ssp. derbianus is endangered - Rooivalk 03:29, 20 November 2005 (UTC)
