I agree with Cypselurus - Bongo generally are more reddish even when young.
Nyala & Bongo look very close; Same genus, but slightly different species
Nyala (Tragelaphus angasii) & Bongo (Tragelaphus eurycerus eurycerus)

He said Nyala, which is a relative, but darker colored, differently patterned, and has slightly different horns, if I remember... o.o

I think it is a young male Nyala, before it changes to a much darker colour, and gets a shaggier coat and long horns. I am not 100% sure but maybe someone else can enlighten you !
