The oribi is a small antelope with long, slender legs and neck. Its patchy range extends across parts of Africa, mainly in grassland.
Its upper coat ranges from reddish brown to light brown, with white underparts and a white mark above each eye. Males have short, straight horns.
It mainly grazes on grass and may browse on leaves when grass is scarce. The account describes scent-based territorial behavior specifically for the South African population.
