The saiga antelope (Saiga tatarica), a critically endangered antelope species originally inhabiting vast areas in the Eurasian steppe zone, today has a greatly reduced habitat in the region. ),Third Meeting of the Signatories to the Saiga MOU (MOS3),Workshop on the Implementation and Coordination of the Saiga Antelope (Saiga spp.) into smaller groups. Scientists around the world are working tirelessly to prevent it from becoming completely extinct. Saigas live in some of the harshest lands in the world, often migrating long distances between summer and winter pastures. Young are born in early June after a gestation of about 150 days.Hair and small piles of spherical black droppings may be found in pasture.The Saiga Antelope was added to the IUCN’s Red List as ‘Critically Endangered’ in 2001.
Historically, huge numbers of saiga shared the steppe with huge numbers of livestock, so it can be done.â,He added: âOvergrazing might be a concern as saiga numbers increase, but it is important to contextualise this within the bigger picture. and chewed again. For example, diseases related to rain in tropical areas–usually from mosquitoes–have started to spiral out of control.The rise in temperature and change to rain patterns affects animals in different ways, depending on their biology and how well they can tolerate the changes.In the case of the Saiga antelope, the bacteria responsible for their mass deaths are being found in their nostrils. Mongolian Saiga is about 63-80cm shoulder height and 23-40kg, which has a stooping body, a large head, a distinctive pendulant proboscides nose, and an unusual style of running.

Today, the dominant subspecies (S. t. tatarica) is only found in one region in Russia (in the Republic of Kalmykia and Astrakhan Oblast) and thre… and cools the animals blood.

The hair under its neck tends to be longer. Saiga antelope (pictured, a calf in Russia) roam the steppes, or arid grasslands, of Eastern Europe and most of Central Asia.
