The sable antelope is part of the Bovidae family and inhabits the wooded savanna in East and Southern Africa. The male and females both have horns so they are sexually dimorphic. The females are typically shorter than the males. They live on average for about 19 years in the wild. Their diet consists of grass and leaves but also visit salt or mineral licks which is a place where salt and/or mineral naturally occur in the wild. They are herd animals, sometimes ranging from 10 to 30 females and one male called a bull.
