About
The Oribi is a long-limbed and long-necked antelope found in eastern, southern and western Africa. It stands 20-30 in (51–76 cm) high and weighs about 31 lb (14 kg). The Oribi is the only dwarf antelope and perhaps the smallest ruminant, a grazer and browser that eats foliage, herbs, and forbs when palatable green grass is unavailable. It derives sufficient water from its food to be water-independent. Oribis leave their territories to visit mineral licks, lawns of short grass created by larger ruminants, and postburn flushes of vegetation during the dry season. When annual fires remove all cover, loose herds of up to a dozen form, but, lacking the cohesion of sociable species, the members scatter in all directions when put to flight.
