Kirk's dik-dik (Madoqua kirkii) is a small antelope native to Eastern Africa and one of four species of dik-dik antelope. The dik-dik's name is derived from its call. When they feel threatened, dik-dik lie low to prevent detection. If they are discovered they run in a swift zigzag like pattern until they reach refuge in a nearby thicket. During this ‘flight’ they emit trumpet-like "zik-zik" calls to raise an alarm or to harass predators and publicize the presence of a mated pair.
Order: Artiodactyla
Family: Bovidae
