They give birth like any other mammal. It is a live birth. Most do it in tall grasses away from the herd and hidden from predators. Once the female has her calf and it is walking and nursing, the female will rejoin the herd.

Antelope females give birth somewhere between 4-9 months after mating, depending on what species they are. The calves are cleaned, fed and settled in a secret spot after they are born. The mothers leave the calves, and visit every few hours to feed and clean them. They do this so that they do not lead predators to their calves. The calves stay motionless when they are alone, camouflaged in the undergrowth. After a few weeks they join the herd. The calves are generally very independent, spending more time together than with their mothers.
