Name
Should this not be at Blackbuck? &mdash; Pekinensis 15:28, 6 Jun 2005 (UTC)

reason for image change
The previous picture had some diagonistic feature. The new one has all the feature as well as both male and females in he same shot.

Awesome!
"Local names for the species include Kala hiran, Sasin, Iralai Maan and Krishna Jinka"

This is cool! I wish more articles had local names and such. :D 71.217.98.158 06:27, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

Request For Addition Of a Video
This is a request to the administrators to add a video on youtube about a "White Black Buck" conserved at IIT Madras,India.I believe that black buck is the only found animal of its kind. The URL of the video is : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gohKX5cv8PQ. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Neshmailsu (talk • contribs) 13:42, 26 March 2010 (UTC)

Endangered but low risk?
The article states both, which is it? --76.100.18.78 (talk) 06:39, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Seems like this combination is possible but the IUCN status is NT as indicated. The numbers are low, but they are traditionally protected by people hence the low risk, perhaps. Shyamal (talk) 06:44, 29 March 2009 (UTC)

Hunter's POV?
IMHO it would be more interesting to know what the size and weight of a blackbuck is than knowing at what length a horn is regarded as a trophy or what the cost of hunting the blackbuck in a game reserve in the US is...

Speed Record
Cervicapres antelopes are almost also fast as cheetahs, with a 85 km/h (53 mph) average on 1,5 kilometers speed and a peak in 110 km/h (70 mph) on 300 meters. In comparison, the fastest cheetah, in him record of 95 km/h (59 mph) on average 500 meters with a point to 120 km/h (75 mph) on 100 meters. The cheetah is higher on legs and longer, than her. I find stupid to put 120 in the cheetah and 85 in the antelope Blackbuck, needs to know about what we speak, 80 and the average speed of the cervicapre, his record peak is good in 110 km/h. Antelopes are the fastest animals with the cheetah.

Other the example; the lion and the zebra are both 57 km/h (35 mph) on average on a sprint and sharp 80 km/h (50 mph), while they are less fast than his antelopes. The record of Nowak is not false but it is a question of the average speed of the sprint, ca would be good to specify it, because cause of it has everybody mixs everything, and finally we do not know any more exactly which is the fastest. Thank you for your understanding.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Angel310 (talk • contribs) 10:34, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

On average blackbucks are peaks speed of 90 to 110 km/h (56-70 mph) depending on the individuals ! --Angel310 (talk) 14:49, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

Images
Although the images are high-quality and certainly add to the article, I can't help but notice that (with the legacy vector skin on my desktop, at least) they're cluttered along the right edge of the page and aren't located near relevant sections of the article. I'm wondering if it may be preferable to move some of the images to a gallery at the end of the page to avoid clutter. &mdash; SamX [talk &bull; contribs] 17:43, 10 February 2023 (UTC)


 * Since nobody objected, I decided to go ahead with the change. Feel free to revert if you disagree, obviously. &mdash; SamX [talk &bull; contribs] 03:44, 11 February 2023 (UTC)
