Home > Wildlife > Thomson's Gazelle Thomson's Gazelle Physical Characteristics While perhaps not as widely distributed as Grant's, Thomson's are still the most common gazelles in East Africa. Though their numbers have diminished in some areas, in others they have persisted on ranches and farmlands long after other species have disappeared. One of the most common gazelles in East Africa, the graceful "tommie" is distinguished from the similarly colored Grant's gazelle by the dark stripe that runs from the shoulder to the flank and the white patch on the rump, as well as it Read More Go to Site Dama Gazelle (Gazella dama) Votes:0 theBIGzoo Only theBIGcastle Only theBIGgalaxy Only All Sites Home : Zoo : Mammals : Hoofed (Even-toed) : Cattle, Sheep & Goats :Dama Gazelle Photo Panel Dama Gazelle Click Here to Use This Photo Quick Facts Kingdom: Animalia Phylum: Chordata Class: Mammalia Order: Artiodactyla Family: Bovidae Genus: Gazella Species: dama Height: 36 - 48 inches Length: 55 - 66 inches Weight: 88 - 165 lbs Gestation: 195 days Offspring: 1 Life Span: 12 years Sponsored Links Dama Gazelle Gazella dama Also Called: Addra Gazelle or Mhorr Gazelle Eating (424 KB) The dama gazelle is the largest gazelle.
