Steenbok are one the more adaptable antelope in Africa,
together with the Grey Duiker they are often the last
species to leave an area. When chased by dogs, Steenbok
take refuge in used antbear holes, although they generally
rely on their speed to take them away from danger. Steenbok
will drink when water is available, but do not require
it, gaining all the moisture that they need from their
food. They are most active in the morning and in the evening,
lying up during the day in bush or long grass.
