A compact, inquisitive animal that blends in well with its surroundings. A hunting species that is widely distributed, frequenting koppies and hilly, rocky countryside. Where suitable habitat occurs, it has definite home ranges. This species is a phenomenal jumper; it is able to go up vertical faces, balancing expertly on its cylindrical hooves. The klipspringer makes a short snorting sound.
