Zoo Gdańsk Announces The Arrival Of A Newborn Sable-Horned Antelope
The sable-horned antelope is a critically endangered species. These animals are known for their impressive ringed horns that rise vertically and curve backward. And their horns have been an appealing target of poachers. For this reason, a newborn mink-horned antelope have been kept in wildlife sanctuaries to preserve their population.
It's the result of the zoo's specialized breeding process. All the efforts of the zoo are worth it.
Zoo Gdañsk is a member of the World Association of Zoos and Aquariums. Covering an area of 125 acres of land, this zoo is home to many different animal species. Additionally, it is a famous destination for entertainment. Both kids and adults alike love to visit the zoo.
The calf has reddish-brown, with virtually no markings. This coat is very helpful for baby antelopes, enabling them to camouflages from predators in the wild. But when they grow older, their color changes. It turns into a darker brown with striking white markings.
These animals feed mainly on grass but they also eat herbs and leaves from shrubs and trees. If they are threatened by a predator, including lions, they will confront it. The scimitar-shaped horns help them win the fight.
