Distributio geographica

Antilocapra americana est species mammalium familiae Antilocapridarum ordinis Artiodactylorum, quae in occidentalibus mediisque Americae Septentrionalis regionibus interioribus endemica sunt.^[3] Sola suae familiae species exstans est.^[4]

Aevo Pleistocaeno, circa duodecim species in America Septentrionali vigebant.^[5] Tria alia genera (Capromeryx,^[6][7] Stockoceros,^[8][9] et Tetrameryx^[10]) exstabant cum homines sapientes in Americam Septentrionalem intrarent, sed nunc exstinctae sunt.

Antilocapra americana est signum Societatis Mammologistarum Americanae.^[11]

Antilocapra americana est celerrimum animal terrestre in hemisphaerio occidentali. Forma corporis sinit ut praedatores efficienter currens fugiat. Currere potest 56 km/h per 6 km, 67 km/h per 1.6 km, et 88.5 km/h per 0.8 km.^[12]
