The dik-dik is a small antelope, found in East Africa. I have been lucky enough to encounter them on many occasions, when on safari in Kenya.
They tend to move around in pairs, and the bond is so strong, it is not uncommon for them to follow each other out in front of cars.
With a population of almost 1 million, this species is listed as least concern, never-the-less it is of great interest to see it in captivity.
Paignton zoo had a baby dik-dik arrive on new years day, so it will be even smaller than normal.
