The usual collective noun for antelope is a herd. You may also hear a group of antelope called a cluster or a tribe, though both are less common. The word herd comes from the Old English “heord”, meaning a group of animals that live and graze together, which fits antelope well since most species gather in groups for safety and to share grazing on open plains. The same word is sometimes stretched to cover closely related animals travelling together, such as a family group of antelope moving as one across their range.
