Springbok  (Antidorcas marsupialis)

Occurs in southern Africa, from south-western Angola, through Namibia, central and south-western Botswana to the western parts of South Africa (2).

Springboks inhabit dry, open plains; from deserts to savannahs and shrublands, and from sea level up to South Africa's Highveld plateau area (3) (5). It prefers areas of short grasses and avoids tall grass, woodland and other areas where vegetation restricts movement and visibility (3).
