About the red-fronted gazelle

The red-fronted gazelle (Eudorcas rufifrons) is a widely but unevenly distributed gazelle found across the middle of Africa from Senegal to northeastern Ethiopia. It is mainly resident in the Sahel zone, a narrow cross-Africa band south of the Sahara, where it prefers arid grasslands, wooded savannas and shrubby steppes. It may be closely related to the Thomson's gazelle, and is considered a vulnerable species.
