A grazing antelope is any of the species of antelope that make up the subfamily Hippotraginae or tribe Hippotragini[1] of the family Bovidae. They are grazers, rather than browsers. Their name comes from Greek ἵππος (híppos), "horse", and τράγος (trágos), "he-goat". They have slightly horse-like characteristics of body size and proportions: long legs and a solid body with a relatively thick muscular neck.
