Disney's Animal Kingdom® Park No male greater kudu at Disney

I've wondered this for years, but just recently thought to ask on here because this seems like the place where I'd most likely find an answer. Animal Kingdom has a herd of greater kudu in the forest section of their safari ride, but they're all females. I've been quite a few times and always saw kudu, no horns insight. I've also watched several videos over the years of the safari ride (I just enjoy it that much) and never saw a male kudu in the vids. Does anyone know why Disney would possibly choose to have an all-female herd? Or maybe why any zoo would do this if there are others that may do something similar? Every other zoo I've visited with kudu had a male or a few with females.
 
I don't know if they do have a male or not, but some places will keep their males separate/off show for safety reasons, then add in whatever male they want to breed when it's time.
