Blackbuck (Indian Antelope)
Speed: 45 to 50 mph
The Blackbuck species is often referred to as the Indian Antelope for a few reasons. First, it is only located (as of now) in the nation of India. Some of them have been located in Bangladesh but it was hunted to extinction. A small population is currently located in Nepal as well. The species was also introduced in the United States within the state of Texas. As of the 2000s, the Blackbuck is said to be roughly 35,000 strong in the state. However, the largest population is clearly in Texas.
Of course, they are also an antelope species. This is not to be confused with deer or another horned animal species. Of course, the predators Blackbucks will face will differ depending on where they’re located. However, by and large, the biggest threat the species faces is being hunted by man. This became such a problem that the Blackbuck became locally extinct in parts of India by the 1970s. They are capable of moving between 45 and 55 mph, with a normal average of 50 mph. Therefore, they can escape the most known predators. Bullets just tend to be much faster.
