A gazelle is a type of antelope known for its graceful movements and speed. These animals are typically found in the grasslands and savannas of Africa and parts of Asia. Gazelles are herbivores, primarily feeding on grasses and leaves. They have slender bodies, long legs, and distinctive curved horns, which are present in males of some species. There are several species of gazelles, including the Thomson's gazelle and the Grant's gazelle. Gazelles are known for their ability to leap high and run fast, which helps them escape from predators like lions and cheetahs. Their social behavior often includes living in herds, providing safety in numbers.
