Gazella arabica
Gazella arabica, commonly known as the Arabian sand gazelle, is a species of antelope native to the Arabian Peninsula. Recognizable by its slender body, light tan coat, and curved horns, it has adapted to desert environments with features like wide hooves for walking on sand and the ability to survive with minimal water. The gazelle is a swift and agile species, primarily feeding on grasses and shrubs. It plays a vital role in its ecosystem but faces threats from habitat loss and hunting, leading to its conservation importance.
