The Red-fronted Gazelle (Gazella rufifrons) is a species of gazelles that is widely but unevenly distributed across the middle Africa from Senegal to north-eastern Ethiopia. It is mainly resident in the Sahel zone, a narrow cross-Africa band south of the Sahara, where it prefers arid grasslands, wooded savannas and shrubby steppes.

Some authorities (e.g. Kingdon 1997) consider that Thomson's Gazelle (G. thomsoni), of East Africa, is a subspecies of Red-fronted Gazelle.
