Antelope deer is a mammal such as Africa, Asia and parts of North and South America found. There are many different species of antelope including small antelope king standing at the height of a rabbit!
Unlike deer horns renewed annually, has strong permanent antelope antelope horns mainly used to defend his flock or other antelopes fight.

An antelope tends between 8 and 10 years old to enter the nature, although they have been known to live longer when kept in captivity. Many antelopes individuals but wouldn \ 't they have in old age in nature, such as antelopes are a key goal for many large carnivorous mammals. If the antelope antelope was old then obviously slower when it is in danger.

The antelope is one of many medium-sized mammals that sustain the food chain in Africa. The only antelope graze in the pasture, but it is a stable source of food for many large carnivores Africa \ 's such as lions, hyenas and crocodiles.



Antelope show several defensive behaviors depending on their size, habitat, number and type. The smaller individual antelopes are usually live in dense forests and this species of antelope defend to hide. The Ducker antelopes are named after this species ability \ 's to plunge into the vegetation. Gazelle antelope great run and jump, and some antelope species show their unique behavior or stotting pronking. Large antelopes congregate in large herds and runs as group defense depend.

The antelope are found in a wide range of habitats, usually wooden, forest, savanna grassland plains and swamps. Several antelope species have adapted to life in the mountains and rocks, some species of antelope to the deserts (hot and cold) adjusted, and some antelope species are semi-aquatic and even these antelopes live in swamps.

After mating, female antelopes give birth to a single calf or, more rarely, twins, after a gestation period that can last up to eight months. A mother and her newborn calf are vulnerable to predators and antelope had to develop different survival strategies that period. For most species of antelope, the female gives birth in dense cover and left calf while she feeds. The calf comes to his mother, as she calls it, and once the calf is fed to hide. Once in hiding, the calf remains in complete silence and flee when it was discovered in the doorway.
