🐃Bluebuck
Siniantilooppi (Hippotragus leucophaeus) on sukupuuttoon kuollut hevosantilooppilaji, jonka hävittivät afrikaanit vuonna 1779. Sen nimi tulee suurimmaksi osaksi harmaansinisestä turkista. Sen elinalue oli pieni alue Kapmaassa. Sillä on kyseenalainen kunnia olla ensimmäinen Afrikassa sukupuuttoon kuollut eläinlaji, jonka ihminen oli metsästänyt sukupuuttoon. Siniantilooppi söi kasveja. Sosiaalinen käyttäytyminen oli todennäköisesti samanlaista kuin muilla antilooppilajeilla. Lajista on nykyään vain viisi säilynyttä taljaa ja piirroksia, jotka ovat ainoat todisteet tämän kauniin antilooppilajin elämästä.
