Klipspringer

3D Model

A nimble klipspringer finds safety from predators on a rocky ledge. The upright hooves provide traction, enabling these small antelopes to spring from rock to rock. They browse on vegetation growing in the crevices of steep mountain slopes.

Personal space

Klipspringers stay with one mate for life. They fiercely defend their territory and mark its boundaries with scents from feces, urine and secretions from a gland beneath the eye.
