Etymology of RHEEBOC

The word "Rheeboc" is derived from the Afrikaans word "rooibok", where "rooi" means red and "bok" means antelope or goat. "Rheeboc" is the Anglicized version of "rooibok" and is commonly used in English to refer to a South African antelope species called the "red hartebeest" (scientific name: Alcelaphus buselaphus caama). The red hartebeest has a reddish-brown coat, which is likely the reason behind the "rooibok" name.
