Pronghorn antelope

Like any horned mammal, pronghorn males like to brawl, and it is usually over a female. During mating season the bucks are known to fight for dominance.

Have you heard the story of the two pronghorn antelope flying on the Hindenburg? It sounds like a joke, but it really happened in 1936 when Wyoming rancher Charles J. Belden sent two pronghorn fawns to a zoo in Germany aboard the zeppelin Hindenburg.

Have you ever been stuck in a Wyoming traffic jam? This is usually how a Wyoming traffic jam works; you drive up on a group of animals like Pronghorn antelope and you stop and wait patiently while the rest of the herd makes it across the road.

'Oh give me a home where the buffalo roam, where the deer and the antelope play,' that's how the song,'Home On The Range,' goes and earlier today there was a Pronghorn antelope holding up traffic in east Cheyenne.
