Gazella is a genus of antelopes commonly known as gazelles. They are known for their graceful movements and speed, which help them evade predators in their natural habitats, primarily found in Africa and parts of Asia. Gazelles typically have slender bodies, long legs, and distinctive curved horns, with males usually being larger than females. These animals are herbivores, primarily grazing on grasses and leaves. Gazelles are social creatures, often found in herds that provide safety in numbers. They are also known for their unique bounding leaps, called stotting, which they use to signal to predators that they are fit and healthy.
