Springbok (Antidorcas marsupialis)

Found in the deserts and dry grasslands of Southern Africa, the springbok is adapted to get all the water they need from the plants they eat. They are one of the fastest mammals on earth, able to reach speeds of up to 55 mph (88kmh), and are one of many ungulates to engage in a type of leaping called pronking or stotting, in which the animal moves all four legs in tandem. Decades ago, when springboks were much more numerous, they used to form giant migrating herds in times of drought which were millions strong and could take days to move through a town!
