<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
The antelope's choice to flee is based largely on the type of predator and its distance from the herd. Usually, gazelles will permit lions to come within 200 m (650 ft.) before fleeing. They likely recognize that a hunting lion prefers to hide while stalking its prey, meaning a visible lion is unlikely to attack. Cheetahs, who are superb sprinters, pose a more dangerous threat. Gazelles will flee from cheetahs when they are over 800 m (0.5 mi.) away.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
Antelopes communicate with each other using a varied array of sounds. For example, dik-diks whistle when alarmed, warning other animals of danger as well. This characteristic makes dik-diks less favorable prey for hunters. Generally, though, sight is a much more common form of communication than sound among antelopes. An antelope's mood is indicated by its posture and movement. When excited or alarmed, most medium-sized species of antelope bounce up and down on all four legs, keeping them stretched out straight. This behavior, known as pronking or stotting, acts as an alarming display. Some biologists theorize that stotting also sends a message to predators, showing that individual antelopes are fit and alert, and therefore not worth pursuing.

Here are the characteristics of several antelope. Your Pathfinders may already have a favorite (or choose some other) antelope not listed here, and that is fine. Encourage research.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
*'''Dik-dik'''
#These antelopes are monogamous, meaning they mate for life.
#Female dik-diks are somewhat larger than males.
#The males have horns, which are small, and slanted backwards.
#They are named for the sound they make when alarmed.
#They are small.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
*'''Bongo'''
#Bongos have a striking reddish coat
#They have black and white markings
#They have long slightly spiral horns.
#They are large
#Some say it is the most beautiful antelope.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
*'''Thomson's Gazelle'''
#"Tommies" are known as swift animals.
#They are able to run at high speeds for long periods of time.
#They exhibit a distinctive behavior of ''stotting'' (running slowly and jumping high before fleeing) when they are threatened by predators such as lions or cheetahs.
# They live and migrate in herds with hundreds or thousands of other Thomson's gazelles.
#Occasionally, a Thomson's gazelle and a zebra will even appear to enjoy one another's company with great sociability.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
*'''Impala'''
#They are reddish-brown in color with lighter flanks, and have white underbellies.
#Males have lyre-shaped horns which can reach up to 90 centimetres (3 ft) in length.
#Impala are among the most beautiful and graceful of the antelopes.
#Exceedingly agile, they are capable of leaping more than 12 m in a single bound.
#Young male impala form bachelor herds of around thirty individuals.
#Females and young form herds of up to two hundred individuals.
#Mature males hold territories, and lead any female herds that wander into their territory.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
*'''Klipspringer'''
#Their name means ''rock hopper''.
#They reach approximately 58cm (22 inches) at the shoulder.
#Klipspringers are relatively small animals compared to some of their larger antelope cousins.
#They never need to drink, since the plants they eat provide them with enough water to survive.
#Only the males have fragile horns that are usually about 20-25cm (4-6 inches) long.
#They stand on the tips of their hooves.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
*'''Roan Antelope'''
#Roan Antelope stand about a meter and half at the shoulder and weigh around 250 kilograms.
#Roan Antelope are a roan color with a lighter underbelly, white eyebrows and cheeks and a black face, lighter in females.
#There is a short erect mane, a very light beard and prominent red nostrils.
#The horns are ringed and can reach a meter long in males, slightly shorter in females.
#The horns arch backwards slightly.
#Roan Antelope are found in grasslands where they eat mid-length grass.
#Roan Antelope commonly fight among themselves for dominance of their herd, brandishing their horns while both animals are on their knees.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
*'''Springbok'''
#Sprinboks have a pocket-like skin flap which extends along the middle of the back on to the tail. The springbok can lift this flap, which makes the white hairs underneath stand up in a conspicuous 'fan'.
#Like the Thomson's gazelle, springboks ''stotter'' when threatened.
#They used to be very common, but numbers have recently diminished due to an increase in hunting and more land being fenced off as farm land.
#They are a small brown and white gazelle that stand about 80 cm (32 in) high.
#Springboks inhabit the dry inland areas of south and southwestern Africa.
</div>

<div lang="en" dir="ltr" class="mw-content-ltr">
*'''Wildebeest'''
#Wildebeests are also known as ''gnus''.
#They grow to 1.15–1.4 meters (45–55 inches) at the shoulder.
#They weigh between 150 and 250 kilograms. (330 and 550 pounds)
#They inhabit the plains and open woodlands of Africa, especially the Serengeti.
#Wildebeest can live for more than 20 years.
#They migrate in May, when around 1.5 million animals move from the plains to the woods
#They return in November as summer rains water the plains.
