MHORR GAZELLE
◆
The Mhorr Gazelle (Nanger dama mhorr) is one of the rarest animals on earth — a subspecies of the Dama Gazelle that is considered extinct in the wild. Every Mhorr Gazelle in existence today lives in captivity, making each animal in our program part of a living conservation legacy. Kaiser Creek Ranch is proud to be among a small number of operations in North America maintaining this critically rare subspecies.
