The dik-dik is a small species of antelope native to the bushlands and savannas of eastern and southern Africa. Characterized by their petite size, large eyes, and elongated snouts, dik-diks stand about 12 to 16 inches tall at the shoulder and typically weigh between 20 to 30 pounds. They are known for their shy nature and are often seen in pairs or small family groups. Their diet primarily consists of leaves, shoots, and fruits, and they have adapted to their environment by being able to survive with minimal water.
