Ah, yes, enter the pronghorned antelope (aka speed goat, etc.) that is neither antelope or goat, but a unique surviving member of its family found only in North America, but most closely related to giraffes.
What is this animal? It's running wild and free in Oklahoma.

I bet that balled up in the colon nicely. Might explain why many of them were grumpy

And the Aoudad is also the sole member of its family in Africa. An evolutionary odd ball.

Ah, probably when the genetics are better understood, it won't appear to be so unique.

Actually a valid point. Colon Cancer occurs mostly after a mans mid 40s. Most of these fellows never lived past 40 years.

Dang it now I am wanting a giraffe roast to smoke.

How did we go from Aoudads to Colon Cancer?
Welcome to the interwebs where one little fun fact turns into a pain in the butt........
Anyways, I'd be curious about a properly cooked aoudad but more interested in the odds of them wandering far enough north to get to MY backyard, I suppose maybe if it wasn't winter.........

I've also heard they are not edible, but I have no first hand experience. I did have one on my place and it moved on pretty quick. It makes a pretty shoulder mount, I would shoot it while you can.

H&Hhunter, I hope it's a young ram. I checked my game cameras this week and it's still here. Would be great to watch it mature.

This is the kind of exotic species that turn up here. A friend of ours had this Rhesus Macaque eating his cows' feed a couple of years ago.

The Big 12 conference (along with the Big 10) doesn't know how to count.

For them to count beyond twenty would require committing a public indecency.

To us Easterners the Wyoming Goats (Antelope) smell and taste kind of like Sage Brush.
Those ranchers out in Wyoming are tough as an old cobb and have eaten so many goats
they can't taste the difference anymore. (Ha Ha)

SoonerMedic, I haven't checked because I don't plan on shooting it. I would rather have it around to watch but if it gets old and mature I may change my mind!
