Overview

Impala (Aepyceros melampus)

Graceful and agile, the Impala is one of Africa’s most iconic antelope species. Found across savannas and woodlands, these medium-sized antelope are known for their sleek, reddish-brown coats and impressive leaping ability — they can jump over 3 meters high and up to 10 meters in length!

Often seen in large herds near water sources, impalas are social and alert, making them a favorite sighting on safaris. Males are distinguished by their lyre-shaped horns, while females are hornless.

Whether grazing quietly or bounding through the bush, impalas add elegance and energy to the African wilderness.
