Description Now extinct in the wild, scimitar-horned oryx once lived in northern African countries of Egypt, Senegal, and Chad. They have been reintroduced in Tunisia. These oryx once lived in arid plains and deserts, and, to a lesser extent, rocky hillsides and thick brush. Scimitar-horned oryx eat grasses, herbs, juicy roots, and buds. Historically, these oryx lived in herds of 20 to 40 individuals, led by a single male. During migrations and times of plentiful water, herds of 1,000 or more were seen.
