Arid and semi-desert scrub and grassland. A true desert antelope, able to survive
indefinitely without drinking. Very widely trans-located.
This very beautiful animal, the national sporting emblem of South Africa, is found
only in South Africa, Namibia, Botswana and in a very small part of southern
Angola. Active at any time of the day and night. They are capable of reaching
speeds of 88 Km/h, in short bursts. The males weight on average is 41 Kg and the
females 37 Kg.
A versatile feeder, changing diet according to availability, and selecting for
nutrients. Typically grazes in summer and browses in winter and during droughts.
Eats grasses, bushes, seeds, pods fruits, flowers and digs for roots and bulbs. Will
eat plants that are unpalatable and toxic to other species. Wild melons and
cucumbers are eaten for their water content, and soil for minerals.
Normally only one lamb is born after a gestation period of 165 to 180 days with the
peak period varying in relation to the timing of rainfall. This is normally from
September to January.
