A Kirk's dik-dik stands in dry grass and low scrub. It has a brown-gray coat, thin legs, and a pointed snout, holding an alert posture while staying close to cover.
This small antelope lives in open savanna and bushy areas and blends well with the pale grass. It mainly eats leaves, shoots, and herbs, and it often browses low to the ground while staying watchful for danger.
