Well I don't know what that last person was talking about, but pronghorns do not just eat, sleep, and breed. They are one of North America's oldest animals surviving through the ice age. They are also the second fastest animal on Earth running from 55 mph to 65 mph. The reason they run so fast is because they had to escape cheetahs. Yes that's right, cheetahs used to live in North America until when people called poachers came to the North American plains and saw the cheetah they wanted to kill it for money.
They hunted cheetahs by the thousands until they were extinct in North America. After cheetahs were extinct in North America the pronghorn pretty much had no other predators to worry about except for humans.
Today since healthy pronghorns don't have any threatening predators to worry about they help fertilize the plains and help clip the grass to keep it at a regular length. When they are young, old, or sick they are food for predators, and they also provide North America with a sense of beauty.
