Red Hartebeest are one of the fastest runners in Africa,
capable of reaching speeds of up to 65 km/h and they are
capable of keeping this speed up for a considerable distance,
in similar fashion to their cousin, the Tssesebe, the
fastest antelope in Africa. Red Hartebeest often post
sentries on vantage points such as anthills, to keep a
watchful eye for danger. They are grazers and do not take
a browse material, and can also go completely without
water, gaining all the moisture that they need from the
food that they eat.
