It doesn't quite act royal, but it's so cute! Measuring 16-20 inches, the Royal Antelope is one of the smallest antelopes in the world. These adorable ungulates are the color of an old apple with small horns and white underbellies. They live in the rainforests of western Africa, up in the Guinea area, are often hunted, but aren't endangered.
Their long, thin legs allow them to quickly bolt from predators, but their skittish nature also makes it hard for us to learn a lot about them. Royal Antelopes eat plant material, and are eaten by large birds and other predators that can get them.
