The Addax is a member of the Antelope family. This little tyke was 3 hours old, born at 12 noon yesterday. The Addax (Addax nasomaculatus) is a critically endangered desert antelope that lives in several isolated regions in the Sahara desert. Although extremely rare in its native habitat, it is quite common in captivity and is regularly bred on ranches where they are hunted as trophies. There are less than 500 addax left in wild, with less than 860 in captivity.
