South African oryx or gemsbok. It is found from the desert dunes of Namibia to the arid savannahs of the Kalahari. Its name comes from the beauty of its coat with large black lines on its sides. Its horns measure on average 85 cm. Its resistance is mainly due to its ability to do without water for most of the year. Males weigh an average of 200 kg and can reach a top speed of 65 km/h.
