The Addax Antelope is a desert antelope also known as the screw-horn antelope. Native to the Sahara Desert, the Addax is one of the world’s rarest mammals. The Addax are native to Northern Africa and were introduced to Texas ranches in the 1970's. Addax, in their native land, have been hunted extensively for their horns, meat and skin.
The Addax Antelope weighs from 130 to 280 pounds. Extremely rare in its native habitat, the Addax is quite common in captivity and is regularly bred on ranches where they are hunted as trophies. There are fewer than 500 Addax left in wild which makes an Addax Antelope trophy a very rare and exotic one to harvest.
Both male and female have horns and they range in size from 28 inches to 40 plus inches on horn length, measured around the curl.. The coloration of an Addax Antelope will vary but most are some variation of white to yellowish brown on the bodies with a mat of dark brown on their forehead. Addax Antelope herds contain both males and females and have from two to twenty animals on our ranches. They will generally stay in one place and only wander widely in search of food. Addax have a strong social structure, based on age, and herds are led by the oldest male.
