Gazelles are small, graceful animals that can run and jump really well. They are one of the fastest animals in Africa. Gazelles are beautiful to watch as they leap across the grasslands!
Gazelles have tan fur, white bellies, and beautiful curved horns. They have big dark eyes that help them watch out for danger. Their long, thin legs are built for running very fast.
- When a gazelle is scared, it jumps high in the air to warn its friends.
- This special jump is called “pronking.” Baby gazelles can stand up and walk very soon after they are born.
