Re: Where do Antelopes sleep?

My only experience with antelopes is with the african variety - duikes, 
springboks, kudu etc that are endemic to Africa. Like most mammals in a 
terrestrial environment, sleeping does not necessarily occur during the 
day and when they do, they sleep in groups; usually in areas the herd 
feels safe. Areas that offer the most cover to a lying down animal are 
favoured, (like long grass, heavy forested areas etc.) since this at least 
removes the antelope from the visual scope of predators (leopard, lion 
etc.)

As with all animals that are sleeping, they sleep lightly and wake up 
quickly at the first sign of any threat!

Kind regards,
