A male springbok in Etosha National Park in Namibia.

The Springbok (Antidorcas marsupialis) is a species of antelope native to southwestern Africa, occupying much of Namibia, Botswana, South Africa and southwestern Angola. There are three recognized subspecies, the Angolan Springbok (A. m. angolensis), Kalahari Springbok (A. m. hofmeyri), and the Southern Springbok (A. m. marsupialis). The springbok was first described by German zoologist E. A. W. von Zimmermann in 1780, who gave the species it's scientific name.

Of the three subspecies, A. m. angolensis is found in northwestern Namibia and southwestern Angola, A. m. hofmeyri is the largest in size and is found in most of Namibia, Botswana and northern South Africa, and A. m. marsupialis is the smallest in size and is found in most of southern South Africa.
