Details
The addax tolerates heat well because it comes from the desert. It has broad hooves for walking in the desert sand. Usually, an addax herd contains from 5 to 20 males and females, leaded by a single male leader. Due to poaching, the wild addax population is decreasing. Now through captive breeding programs, they are reintroduced into the wild.
