Scanned photo from my visit in July 2002.

Scimitar-Horned Oryx and Springbok exhibit.
 
Isn't this one of the ungulate enclosures on the perimeter of the zoo, for zebras, oryx, wildebeest..? There may be an oryx at the top left of the picture - although my eyesight is not good enough to be sure (it may well be a plant or something...).
 
The animal you spotted is more likely an Oryx than a Wildebeest; I remember the former but not the latter, although it was of course 9 years ago. Until one of the Dutch members comes to my rescue with a confirmation, I will rename this an Oryx exhibit.
 
This is the exhibit for scimitar-horned oryxes and springboks that opened next to the other savannah on the new extension area in year 2000.
