Antelope Saved From Crocodiles By A Hippopotamus, Kenya

Due to the docile nature, nutritious milk, and lean meat of elands, programs have been in place to domesticate them for many years in Ukraine and South Africa. Thus far, none have been successful.
• Hybrid antelope
A wide variety of antelope hybrids have been recorded in zoos, game parks, and wildlife ranches. This is due to either a lack of more appropriate mates in enclosures shared with other species or a misidentification of species. The ease of hybridization shows how closely related some antelope species are. With few exceptions, most hybrid antelope occur only in captivity.
Most hybrids occur between species within the same genus. All reported examples occur within the same sub-family. As with most mammal hybrids, the less closely related the parents, the more likely that the offspring will be sterile.
