I found this fascinating: "An antelope is a member of a number of even-toed ungulate species indigenous to various regions in Africa and Eurasia. Antelopes comprise a wastebasket taxon (miscellaneous group) within the family Bovidae, encompassing those Old World species that are not cattle, sheep, buffalo, bison, or goats." - they're defined by where they're from and what they aren't. There are 91 species. So, for example, a gnu (wildebeest) is an antelope. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antelope |
