🕵️‍♂️ What Animal Wednesday Hint Time! 🦌

I’m known for my spiraled horns, speedy legs and striking color contrast. The males are dark brown while the females are much lighter in color. 👀

Originally from India, I can run up to 50 miles per hour when I really get moving!

Can you guess what animal I am? Drop your guesses below! ⬇️
