Behold, a female Grant's gazelle (Nanger granti). So delicate!
This gazelle is grazing among the tough brittle-brown grasses of the Serengeti. What is unique about Grant's gazelle is that it is very efficient in digesting dry matter. It rarely needs to drink! This means that unlike other species that require stops at water holes during the dry season, the Grants can avoid them. This means they can also avoid the predators waiting there.
Delicate in some ways, but really tough in others. That's a Grant's gazelle!
