The Springbok is a small antelope with reddish tan body and a chocolate band running along its side.  He has a white underbelly and short horns.  The name comes from his habit of jumping into the air when surprised.  They almost have a zipper on the back in front of the tail, which, when opened, displays a long white hair.  Quite unique!
