The klipspringer (; Oreotragus oreotragus) is a small antelope found in eastern and southern Africa. The sole member of its genus and subfamily/tribe, the klipspringer was first described by German zoologist Eberhard August Wilhelm von Zimmermann in 1783. The klipspringer is a small, sturdy antelope; it reaches 43–60 centimetres (17–23+1⁄2 inches) at the shoulder and weighs from 8 to 18 kilograms (18 to 40 pounds). The coat of the klipspringer, yellowish gray to reddish brown, acts as an efficient camouflage in its rocky habitat. Unlike most other antelopes, the klipspringer has a thick and coarse coat with hollow, brittle hairs. The horns, short and spiky, typically measure 7.5–9 cm (3–3+1⁄2 in).
Typically nocturnal, the klipspringer rests during the middle of the day and late at night. A gregarious animal, the klipspringer is monogamous to a much greater extent than other antelopes; individuals of opposite sexes exhibit long-term to lifelong pair bonding. The mates tend to stay as close as within 5 m (16 ft) of each other at most times. Males form territories, 7.5–49 hectares (18+1⁄2–121 acres), in which they stay with their partners and offspring. Primarily a browser, the klipspringer prefers young plants, fruits and flowers. Gestation lasts around six months, following which a single calf is born; births peak from spring to early summer. The calf leaves its mother when it turns a year old.
The klipspringer inhabits places characterised by rocky terrain and sparse vegetation. Its range extends from northeastern Sudan, Eritrea, Somaliland and Ethiopia in the east to South Africa in the south, and along coastal Angola and Namibia. The International Union for the Conservation of Nature and Natural Resources (IUCN) classifies the klipspringer as Least Concern. There are no major threats to the survival of the klipspringer, as its habitat is inaccessible and unfavourable for hunting. Significant numbers occur on private farmlands. As of 2008, nearly 25% of the populations occur in protected areas throughout its range.

Kalliohyppijä (Oreotragus oreotragus) on pieni afrikkalainen antilooppilaji. Nimensä mukaisesti se elää kivisillä ja kallioisilla alueilla. Levinneisyys ulottuu Etiopiasta Kapin niemimaalle. Kalliohyppijä on sukunsa ainoa laji ja sen kehityslinja on saattanut erota muista onttosarvisista jo mioseenikauden alussa. Tieteellinen nimi Oreotragus tulee kreikan sanoista oros ("vuori") ja tragos ("urosvuohi/pukki"), tarkoittaen "vuoripukkia". Kalliohyppijä-nimitys tulee hollannin tai afrikaansin kielen sanasta Klipspringer, joka sananmukaisesti tarkoittaa kalliohyppijää. Laji liikkuu eniten varhaisaamulla ja myöhäisillalla, ja elää yleensä pareittain tai pieninä ryhminä.
