-======  GAZELLES ==
-Class: MAMMALIA
-Order: ARTIODACTYLA
-Family: BOVIDAE
-Genus: GAZELLA, NANGER, EUDORCAS
-**T**his group of genera with small antelope contains 19 recognised species, ranging in size from the Speke's Gazelle, which stands at just half a metre tall at the shoulder, to the Dama Gazelle, which stands 120 centimetres. The range of the gazelle, whilst mainly from North to Central Africa, also stretches into Asia as far as Mongolia. The genera //Eudorcas// and //Nanger//, the latter containing the largest of the gazelles, were once classified under //Gazella//, though although they are now considered different genera from //Gazella//, the antelopes are still dubbed as gazelles, and share many qualities characteristic to //Gazella//.
