How many types of antelope
No one even knows exactly how many species of antelope there are.
There are about a hundred of them in total - different zoologists offer different classification systems.
Most antelopes live in Africa. It is interesting that the largest antelope in the world, the eland, and the smallest, the dik-dik, live on this continent.
Where do antelopes sleep
During the day they sleep in shaded shelters. These antelopes can be hunted by lions, birds of prey, snakes and other carnivores.
To escape from predators, Suni hide in dry grass, which is facilitated by their protective coloring.
Why do antelopes migrate
Because antelopes migrate to places where the grass is greener and tastier, and thereby escape from drought.
On the border between Kenya and Tanzania is just such a place where the grass matures at different rates due to the climate, and if you walk back and forth, there will always be enough food.
Previously, we talked about the rarest species of birds.
