Pronghorn are a prairie animal. They're not related to a deer, but they're sort of that
00:20
same size and shape, and they live on the prairies. They eat grass, a few shrubs and
00:25
forbs. They weigh maybe 60 pounds or 80 pounds. They're not very big. They're found really from
00:31
Canada, down the Rocky Mountains, all the way into Mexico. There's some in Arizona, a few in California,
00:38
Baja Peninsula. Those are subspecies. They're all the same animal, but they're a little bit
00:42
different genetically. Well, subspecies is poodle and a labradoodle. They're the same animal. They're
00:48
still a dog, but they're not exactly the same.
00:55
They're different than a deer, in that deer and elk and those kind of animals have antlers,
01:07
and antelope have horns. And the difference is the antelope's horns are made out of hair
01:11
rather than out of bone. Just woven tight hair, and this slips off every year, much the same
01:18
as other animals shed their antlers. These guys just shed their horn.
01:30
Favorite thing about the pronghorn has got to be at speed. It can cruise for miles and miles
01:35
and miles at 30 miles an hour. That's like driving down through town, and in and among
01:40
those 30 mile an hour cruises, it can accelerate to 40 miles an hour for a mile or two. They're
01:45
this fast. Antelope have very, very good eyesight, telescopic eyesight, like us looking through
01:51
binoculars, and so they hang out in areas where they can see a long way, and they like to see
01:57
a long way so that when predators come around or a threat comes around, they can run. They
02:02
can see something a mile away coming. They can turn around and run 40 miles an hour, and
02:07
they can be a long way away by the time that the threat gets there.
