They are the second fastest land mammal in the world, behind only the cheetah, according to Saskatchewan's Management Plan for Pronghorn. Finally another vehicle travelling in the opposite direction approached the animals and the herd found a place to veer off the road. Schmaltz took a video of the encounter with the pronghorn herd and posted it to Facebook. Jokes aside, roadways can offer an easy corridor that helps the pronghorn save its energy instead of navigating heavily snowed fields and ditches, according to Saskatchewan's Ministry of Environment. The animals will travel along the roadway until there are no longer barriers preventing their movement off the roadway.
