A desert animal, that is not dependant on surface water. This animal is frequently shot at long
range. They have exceptional eyesight and their herding tendancies make for a very difficult stalk.
They generally feed into the wind but when truly startled can run for hours on end. The females also have
horns, and they tend to be longer than the males, but the males have thicker bases.
Recommended calibre is .300 Magnums
