A springbok is s a medium-sized brown and white antelope. It is very fast and can reach speeds of up to 100km/h (62 mph) it can jump very high 4m (13 feet) through the air. Spring – translated is jump and bok translated is goat.
The springbok is South Africa’s national animal and also the name of the South African Rugby Team.
I love seeing them jump and leap through the air.
The Springbok and Impala look very similar and people sometimes get confused with them.

Living and Traveling in Africa 
Great pics! My husband and I lead tours to Israel and they have a similar animal called an Ibex. This looks like the same animal. We were told Ibex came from Africa. Do you know if it is the same?

Thank you for stopping by 🙂 I don’t think it is because you only get Springboks in Southern Africa
