Description
"Pronghorn Antelope Head Butting" by Catherine Sherman
Two young pronghorn antelope practice head butting in the Custer State Park in the Black Hills region of South Dakota. The two are part of a bachelor band.
The pronghorn (Antilocapra americana) is a species of artiodactyl mammal indigenous to interior western and central North America. Though not an antelope, it is often known colloquially in North America as the prong buck, pronghorn antelope, or simply antelope because it closely resembles the true antelopes of the Old World and fills a similar ecological niche due to parallel evolution.
As a member of the superfamily Giraffoidea, the pronghorn's closest living relatives are the giraffes and okapi.

Fantastic capture. I don't think I've ever even seen pronghorn sparring. Great image. l/f
Catherine Sherman replied:
Thank you very much, Lynn! It was a lot of fun watching them. They weren't very serious about it.
