The Antilocapridae are a family of ruminant artiodactyls endemic to North America. Their closest extant relatives are the giraffids.[1] Only one species, the pronghorn (Antilocapra americana), is living today; all other members of the family are extinct. The living pronghorn is a small ruminant mammal resembling an antelope.
