The White Springbok is not a separate species, but rather a color variation of the common Springbok. Its unique pale coat is a result of a genetic condition known as leucism.
They are primarily found in southern Africa, in the same regions as common Springbok. However, they are less common due to their genetic rarity.
No, they are not albinos. Albinism is characterized by a complete lack of pigment, resulting in pink eyes. Leucistic animals, like the White Springbok, have a partial lack of pigment, so they may have normal colored eyes and some skin areas with color.
The hunting method doesn't differ much, but due to the rarity of the White Springbok, they might be more sought after by trophy hunters.
A medium caliber rifle, such as a .270 or .308, is generally sufficient. It's essential to focus on shot placement due to the Springbok's agile nature.
Behaviorally, there's no difference between the two. Both exhibit the characteristic jumping behavior known as "pronking" or "stotting."
White Springboks are not classified separately in conservation terms but fall under the broader protection and management schemes for all Springbok. Generally, Springboks are not endangered.
The term "white" refers to their light, almost white fur, which is due to leucism, a genetic condition causing a partial loss of pigmentation.
Their pale coloration might make them easier targets for predators, as they stand out against the natural environment compared to the more camouflaged common Springbok.
