The Addax antelope is a critically endangered species native to the arid regions of the Sahara Desert. Known for its distinctive twisted horns and sandy-colored coat, the Addax is well-adapted to its harsh environment, able to survive without drinking water for long periods by obtaining moisture from its food. Addax antelopes are social animals, often found in small herds. They primarily feed on grasses and shrubs, using their strong hooves to dig for roots during dry seasons. Conservation efforts are underway to protect this unique species from habitat loss and poaching, as their population continues to decline.
