The Saiga Antelope
When compared to other members of the antelope family, this animal’s long, sagging snout that hangs below its lips gives it an extraordinarily distinct look. It’s considered that their distinctive nasal configuration makes breathing easier by cooling hot air in the summer and warming cold air in the winter. Saiga antelopes are mainly found in Asia’s arid grassland areas, and their movement patterns are seasonal. Saiga antelopes congregate in herds of thousands during migration! Male saiga antelopes call a group of up to 30 females as a form of harem during mating season, which occurs in early winter.
