SAIGA ANTELOPE Though their range today is limited to Russia and the ‘stans of Central Asia, this critically endangered antelope species had a vast range during the Ice Age. Standing 24 to 32 inches at the shoulder and weighing up to 150 pounds, these bizarre animals are known for their bloated shnozz, which looks a bit like someone docked an Elephant’s trunk. But the nose serves a valuable purpose, warming frigid air during winter while cooling and filtering out dust in the summer. #info #EverythingsInfo
