The cool winter season is an ideal time to see these small and shy antelopes. We encountered this male steenbok in Pilanesberg National Park, South Africa.

Klipspringers
This cute couple is Mr. and Mrs. Klipspringer. Klipspringers – literally it means ‘rock jumper’ – are small antilopes, reaching a maximum shoulder height of 60cm. They enjoy acrobatic jumps on rocky outcrops. Because their habitat is often inaccessible and commercially not interesting, klipspringers are doing relatively well in large parts of Africa.
