The kudu is especially noted for its spectacular spiral horn which give the animal a rahter solid appearance. In the greater kudu, horns are used as musical instruments and symbolic ritual objects. If you see the kudu's horns, you'll understand why some cultures take them as a symbol of male patency.
Predators of the greater kudu generally consist of lions, leopards and hunting dogs. Altough cheetahs also pray on grater kudus, they are unable to bring down a mature male, so usully go for the more vulnerable females and offpring.
