female Deccan Gazelle - a photo on Flickriver

            my first ever sighting of this shy species on a dry and rocky plateau in Panna Tiger Reserve, Madhya Pradesh, India. 
It might actually be pregnant given the belly profile.

The Deccan Gazelle is a subspecies of the Chinkara or Indian Gazelle. 
This small antelope  is able to live with minimal water and lives in dry regions of India, Pakistan, Iran and Afghanistan.
The males have prominent S-shaped horns and some females like this one have short horns.
