DAMA GAZELLE Fun Facts
- The Dama Gazelle (Nanger dama) is one of the largest and rarest gazelle species in the world, native to the arid and semi-arid regions of the Sahara and Sahel in northern Africa.
- Mature Dama Gazelles are known for their tall, slender build, long legs, and striking coloration, with a predominantly white body contrasted by reddish-brown markings along the neck and back.
- Both males and females develop distinctive ringed horns, with males typically carrying heavier, more robust horns that curve upward and backward.
- Dama Gazelles are naturally adapted to hot, dry environments, making them well suited to properly managed ranch environments in Texas where adequate nutrition, habitat, and care are provided.
- As a critically endangered species in the wild, Dama Gazelles maintained in professionally managed herds represent an important genetic resource, making responsible breeding and careful bloodline management especially valuable.
- Our Dama Gazelle program is built on the same standard as every species we raise — healthy animals, quality genetics, sound conformation, and breeding stock worth building a herd around.
