I photographed these Pronghorn deer near Rapid City, SD sometime in the summer of 2003. Many call them Pronghorn Antelope, but they aren't an antelope at all. They are actually part of the deer family.

Here's some wonderful info from http://www.friendsofsaguaro.org/pronghorn.html about Pronghorns:

General Information:

This interesting mammal spends most of its time on the prairie. Pronghorns are true American natives, found nowhere else in the world. They have roamed the plains and deserts of North America for at least the last million years in substantially the same form. One can truly call this animal unique: he is the lone member of his family, Antilocapra americana, which literally means the "American goat-antelope". The pronghorn is not actually a true antelope at all.

You can find extremely detailed information on them and some great pictures, at the link above.
