Impala

Also known as Rooibok

Impala are agile, gregarious antelopes renowned for their remarkable jumping ability, clearing obstacles up to three meters high and leaping distances of over ten meters when alarmed. They form dynamic breeding herds led by a dominant ram alongside bachelor groups that constantly challenge for prime territory and mates. As flexible mixed feeders, they shift seamlessly between grazing fresh grasses during the rainy season and browsing shrubs and fallen seed pods during dry spells.
