🐃Gemsbok
Gemsbok (Oryx gazella) Oryx cinsinden iri bir antilop türüdür. Adı Afrikaner dilinde çengel boynuzlu keçi anlamına gelir. Aradaki bazı benzerliklere rağmen (örneğin yüzdeki siyah beyaz çizgiler), iki tür akraba değildir. Gemsboklar, bir erkeğin yönettiği 10 ila 40 hayvandan oluşan sürüler halinde gezerler. Genelde zebra, ceylan ve başka antilop türleriyle kaışık sürüler oluştururlar. Dişinin boynuzu az da olsa arkaya kıvrık ve erkeğinkinden daha uzun, erkeğinki ise dümdüz ve dişininkinden daha kalındır. Erkek bir gemsbok boynuzlarıyla bir aslanı bile öldürebilir. Gemsboklar genelde çöllerde yaşarlar ve çok fazla suya gereksinim duymazlar. Bir gemsbokun omuz yüksekliği 120 cm ve ağırlığı 200 kilodur.
