Does anybody recognize what animal this is?

Last summer while driving along a trail outside of Duck Creek in southern Utah my Wife and I ran into a few of these. don't know what they are. Can anybody help I.D. them? I'm pretty sure they are not deer.

It's help if you included a pic but, based on what you said, I'd guess antelope.

Wow! What's the secret to getting so close to those pronghorn? They're usually very alert and skittish. I need to know in case I get drawn to hunt next fall.:yup:

They were just grazing on the side of the road as we drove by.

Sometimes, if they're used to moving vehicles they won't run, but stop the Jeep and they're in fifth gear within 50 yards. You must have been running a stock exhaust.:cheesy:

More importantly, what the heck are they doing in that wooded area? I've never seen them in anything other than wide open field. :crazyeyes:

Linebacker, good to meet you at the Denver meetup recently. Let me know if you're serious about drawing for Pronghorn. I've got some land in Southern CO that I can pretty much guarantee an animal.

I see them in the forest all the time around Flagstaff when I'm elk hunting. The are constantly roaming and moving from open flats to the forest areas based on food. But normally stick to the open flats.
