See Berrendo Pronghorn, Baja California Sur
The berrendo pronghorn were once abundant in Baja, but now only exist in the Vizcaíno Biosphere Reserve area. The pronghorn is the fastest land mammal in the Western Hemisphere and can sustain running at high speeds longer than cheetahs. There are five pronghorn subspecies and the Antilocapra americana peninsularis in Baja are in critical danger of going extinct. It’s estimated that there are only 150 berrendos left in Baja. The San Diego Zoo and Los Angeles Zoo are working to reestablish the berrendo in protected areas of Baja California.
Where to See Them: There’s a conservation park just north of Guerrero Negro off of highway Mexico 1 near the airport where you can see the berrendos.
When to see them: Year-round
How to See Them: You can stop by on your own to see the berrendo at the conservation park. Admission is free.
