Bovidae
The Bovidae are the most diverse group of living ungulates with 143 Recent species (over 55% of modern ungulates). Bovids are primarily Old World in their distribution, although a few species are found in North America. The name "antelope" is often used to describe many members of this family, but it is not a definable, taxonomically-based term - if it's not an ox, goat, or sheep, then it's an antelope; antelope are found in all eight modern bovid subfamilies alongside distinctly non-antilopine species.Bovidae

These pictures are great! If you would like to share with another online community, we would love to have them on the Encyclopedia of Life, an online curation. It’s best to join inaturalist.org and post pictures there. You can even directly import pictures from facebook. You can label the location and taxonomy (if you don’t know it, click “ID Please” and someone will label it for you) then we’ll post to the online curation.
