That is so UNBELIEVABLE how close the hungry coyote came to that vulnerable baby fawn!!😮😮 RUN FORREST RUN😂
these guys are all over the place in utah, so cool to see them run by when im just on the road. so unique!
This is the first time I've seen this amazing animal! Fascinating!
Where are you from?
Don't let it be the last either.
@@BOBofGH Not everyone's from the North America, you know, the continent that makes up only 16% of the earth's surface.
@@El_FzEq geez was just asking
They hit 65mph
I saw the migration in January 1980. What an amazing sight ! They filed past Boar's Tusk 4 to 6 abreast , lined out for Thunder Basin. Hundreds or thousands ? Hard to say but impossible to forget.
Pronghorns are related to the giraffe.
They hated him, for he spoke the truth.
That's right.
The world is so amazing oml. Thats why we should protect it. And thats why im gonna be a biologist soon :D
Great
I`m 59yrs old and what i want to know is, how come I`ve never heard of the Pronghorn Antelope until now ? Great video, thanks
they're allegedly almost extinct, and not a true antelope
But I'm sure you've heard the "where the antelope play"
@@TcBalkom They are not at all uncommon. I live in the heart of Arizona and they are all over the place. I have two shed horns that my dogs found.
Those biting ants would have made a believer outta me!! 😂 interesting documentary, thank you guys for keeping me informed!!👍🏾
interestingly, the closest living relatives of the pronghorn are the giraffe and the okapi. This video was produced probably in the 80's before genetic analysis was around so that fact wasn't mentioned in the video.
Giraffoidea is a superfamily of even-toed hoofed mammals now native only to Africa and North America, the only surviving members of this superfamily are the giraffes (genus Giraffa), okapi (Okapia johnstoni), and pronghorn (Antilocapra americana), the superfamily is further split into two surviving families, which are Antilocapridae (Pronghorn and Fossil Relatives) and Giraffidae (Giraffes and Okapi), this is the most basal extant superfamily of the Pecora infraorder and first existed during the Eocene, it is also one of the only two extant superfamilies of even-toed hoofed mammals to be polytypic, the other is Moschoidea, where the musk deer (genus Moschus) and water deer (genus Hydropotes) of the respective monotypic families Moschidae and Hydropotidae are the sole surviving members, all the other even-toed hoofed mammal superfamilies being Traguloidea, Cervoidea, Bovoidea, Cameloidea, Tayassuoidea, Suoidea, and Hippopotamoidea are all monotypic because chevrotains (family Tragulidae), deer (family Cervidae), bovids (family Bovidae), camels (family Camelidae), peccaries (family Tayassuidae), pigs (family Suidae), and hippos (family Hippopotamidae) are the sole extant families of those respective superfamilies, as for the pronghorn (Antilocapra americana), which is the only extant non-african giraffoid, the pronghorn has five recognized subspecies: the Rocky Mountain Pronghorn (Antilocapra americana americana), the Oregon Pronghorn (Antilocapra americana oregona), the Sonoran Pronghorn (Antilocapra americana sonoriensis), the Mexican Pronghorn (Antilocapra americana mexicana), and the Baja California Pronghorn (Antilocapra americana peninsularis).
Basically , put a mountain chamois in a blender with a horned camel and you get a pronghorn antelope.
Nice man. I haven't heard the "Chamois" invoked in quite awhile, good job. But you are missing .. THE FAST PART. Needs wings .. part Merlin?
@@youbetyourwrasse
Absolutely.
👍
Pronghorns aren't deer nor antelopes, they're actually the only member of the biological family Antilocapridae and are closely related to the okapi and the giraffe. They're also the 2nd fastest animal in the world behind the cheetah, and it's theorized that during the ice age a much faster American cheetah regularly feasted on pronghorns making them evolve to become faster.
When you see them in real life you can definitely tell they are related to giraffes, such a unique head. Wish I could see the American Cheetah chasing a pronghorn in real life
Always loved that show.
They would put on these lullaby videos and turn off the lights and then expect us to stay awake in class
Humans seem to destroy animals through hunting, testing, eating, theatrical shows , etc. Much respect is due them.
How do you think your meat gets into a store, grow up?
Hunting funds the upkeep and governments investment in wildlife and their habitat. Every dollar spent in the hunting industy has an additional tax added for this purpose.
That tax money is what incintivizes the local governments to care, because without the funds, the politics would not reflect kindly on the species.
This guy's videos are so soothing. A stark contrast to idiot Vloggers. I like this guy.
Good Ol Marty

Why do they say eons of evolution? The earth isnt that old.
It is actually.
4.5 billion years is a very long time
