The klipspringer (Oreotragus oreotragus) is a small tiny-hoofed antelope that lives in mountainous areas of eastern and southern Africa.
It measures up to 4 feet (1.2 metres) in length and weighs up to 40 pounds (18 kg). It has a glossy olive-yellow coat with yellow and brown specks, fading to white on the underparts and legs. Male klipspringers have small, spiky horns.
Klipspringers browse on evergreen shrubs and live in pairs, raising up to two young at a time.

You caused me to go to DuckDuckGo.com to make sure you didn’t make it up. It’s funny. I never would have thought you did until you asked. Nice one. They are kind of cute.
Who knows – one day I just might!
There you go. Now I will forever be checking up on your posts. Have you done this? Made up animals and such?
Maybe! Maybe not! I would hate to stop you from finding out for yourself!
A cute antelope, thanks for sharing.
Such a cute and small antelope. I know there are plenty more animals I have never heard of.
It’s good that this antelope lives in the mountains in Africa because lions and tigers would love Oreo’s antelope flavor.
I know you didn’t invent this little beauty… I looked it up.
What a small antelope.

I thought I’ve see it somewhere …
but my memory may play tricks on me :p
A group of antelope is called a herd.
I don’t think this one is found in herds!
