Dorcatragus megalotis
The beira is a small antelope with very large ears. It lives in dry mountainous regions of eastern Africa and is well adapted to life without water.
The beira differs from other antelopes by its very large ears and life in dry rocky mountains. It helps control the growth of shrubs and serves as food for local predators.
