Antelope is among the animals visitors can meet at UK wildlife attractions.

Antelopes are graceful, hoofed mammals belonging to the Bovidae family, which also includes goats and sheep. They inhabit a variety of environments across Africa and parts of Asia, often found in grasslands, savannas, and woodlands where they can graze on grasses and browse on shrubs. Antelopes have not been evaluated as a single conservation group, but many species are facing threats due to habitat loss and hunting. An interesting fact about antelopes is their incredible speed and agility; some species can reach speeds of up to 60 miles per hour to escape predators. UK families can see these fascinating creatures at various zoos and wildlife parks, offering a chance to learn more about their behaviours and habitats.
