Impala



 These animals come from the antelope family also.  These Toffee brown antelopes have large ears.  The males have beautiful shaped horns that can measure 1-2 ft in length.  They make nasal snorts and gutlural trumpeting noises.  They call this roaring and can be heard up to a mile.  They roam in herds of up to 200.  They are what you call mixed feeders.  They are capable of adapting to a variety of food.  Going from short grass areas and other times grazing in the foliage of bushes and trees.
