Let's do Some Zoology!

I’m just a simple 18 year old guy and zoology student that posts random factoids about obscure animals and general animal science/zoology/biology stuff so if you like animals this is the place for you, if you only like cute animals this is not the place for you… I also like astronomy and some weirdos from youtube called the creatures so I’m prone to reblog stuff about that too because this techically is a personal blog...

Disclamer: none of the pictures are mine unless stated

Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor

 

Klipspringer (Oreotragus oreotragus)

…is a small species of antelope endemic to Eastern Africa. Klipspringers are expert climbers and can maneuver on cliffs with extreme balance and precision. They are able to accomplish this as they stand on the tips of their hooves, and as such they can fit them into even the smallest crack. Like several other antelopes Klipspringers never ever drink as the plants they feed on give them enough water to survive.
