Non-Typical Solutions Report post Posted May 8, 2017 I gotta admit I know very little about the Pronghorn Antelope but sitting in church Sunday keeping my grandson quiet we were perusing a book titled Arizona Wildlife and we came across this.... I guess I have never heard them referred to specifically as "pronghorn".....without the term "antelope" included??? Just curious if one is more correct that the other or if they belong together both terms or are they interchangeable??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Heat Report post Posted May 24, 2017 Pronghorn are unique animals that look similar to true African antelope but are in their own genus alone. Pronghorn are the only species I am aware of that shed only the sheath and retain a bone core. True antelope retain the horns like cattle or sheep. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
