The oribi (; Ourebia ourebi) is a small antelope found in eastern, southern and western Africa. The sole member of its genus, the oribi was first described by the German zoologist Eberhard August Wilhelm von Zimmermann in 1782. Eight subspecies are identified. The oribi reaches nearly 5067 centimetres (2026 in) at the shoulder and weighs 1222 kilograms (2649 lb). This antelope features a slightly raised back, and long neck and limbs. The glossy, yellowish to rufous brown coat contrasts with the white chin, throat, underparts and rump. Only males possess horns; the thin, straight horns, 818 centimetres (3.17.1 in) long, are smooth at the tips and ringed at the base. * Typically diurnal, the oribi is active mainly during the day. Small herds of up to four members are common; males defend their group's territory, 25100 hectares (62247 acres) large. The oribi is primarily a grazer, and prefers fresh grasses and browses occasionally. A seasonal breeder, the time when mating occurs varies geog |
