The saiga antelope, or saiga, is a critically endangered antelope which during antiquity inhabited a vast area of the Eurasian steppe spanning the foothills of the Carpathian Mountains in the northwest and Caucasus in the southwest into Mongolia in the northeast and Dzungaria in the southeast.
Once numbering in the millions, the saiga population crashed by 95% in fifteen years, the fastest decline ever recorded for a mammal species. They are now critically endangered. In May and early June of 2015, over 200,000 saiga in central Kazakhstan died suddenly due to a respiratory illness.
Saiga is a relatively small cloven-hoofed animal, body length 110-146 cm, tail 8-12 cm, height at the withers 60-79 cm. Weight 23-40 kg. Saiga lives in Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Kyrgyzstan, Turkmenistan, Russia and western Mongolia. In 2002, the International Union for Conservation of Nature, this species was classified as "CR", that is, "in critical condition." Saiga are on the verge of extinction, because poachers hunt for their skins and meat.
