The sunlight antelope is a creature that players can capture with the Hunter skill at level 72 by using a pitfall trap. They can be found in the Avium Savannah, east of the Locus Oasis. The fairy ring AJP is located west of the hunter spot.

Unlike other creatures hunted via pitfall traps (such as horned graahks), players will always succeed in hunting sunlight antelopes.

Although sunlight antelopes have a combat level of 47, they cannot be attacked. However, they can attack players once provoked with a teasing stick or hunter's spear, dealing up to 5 melee damage.

Catching a sunlight antelope will reward the player with their antlers, which can be used to create the hunters' sunlight crossbow, as well as the accompanying bolts.

Sunlight antelopes may be assigned as a hunters' rumours task by Huntmaster Gilman, or Guild Hunters Aco, Teco, or Wolf.

The hunting technique is the same as for other pitfall trapping. Players must bring a teasing stick, a knife (an equipped fletching knife also works) and any type of logs (except for redwood logs and arctic pine logs) to the hunting spot location. By clicking on a pit, the player will create a spiked pit. After this, the player should tease one of the antelopes, lure it towards the set up trap, and jump over the trap. If successful, the creature will attempt to walk over the trap and fall into the pit. Finally, the player needs to dismantle the trap in order to get rewarded with the loot and Hunter experience.

It is advised to bring an axe to the hunting area in order to cut the nearby trees for logs while hunting these creatures. Equipping any Kandarin Headgear will provide two logs per tree chopped, reducing how much woodcutting needs to be done.

Consider bringing a chisel (with at least 62 Fletching) in order to turn the horns into the stackable sunlight antler bolts in order to save inventory space.
