Antelope

Since the Savannah biomes are being updated in 1.15 and beyond, we should have more animals to fit there besides an Ostrich, and elephants (which won’t be added). So, how about the Antelope?

Antelope will be very fast passive mobs that flee from the player. They will have different skins and could even spawn in more biomes besides the Savannah. My ideas for skins would be based off of the American Pronghorn, the Thompson’s Gazelle of Africa, the Nigali of India, the Gemsbok of Africa, and the Arabian Oryx.

Antelope would live in packs and would graze on grass. When killed they could drop Mutton or their horns. Overall they would add a ton of life to Minecraft.

    Also, the different antelope variants could spawn in different biomes.

    For example, Gemsbok and Thompson’s Gazelle could spawn in Savannahs, Oryxes in the deserts, Pronghorn in Plains biomes, Nigali in Jungle Biomes, and perhaps a colder species of antelope (Like the Saiga of siberian steppes) could spawn in Ice Plains.

    Support, would love to see something like this added, especially following up on Doc's comment about the different types of antelopes in the biomes that could spawn, including things he already said like gazelles.
