Gazella cuvieri

Unlabelled, but this appears to be a single Cuvier's Gazelle in a holding enclosure near the entrance (unless anyone knows better?).
 
I'm three years late, but this is a male that once lived in a bigger herd (19 individuals) in the addax exhibit. They came as a breeding project from Parque de Rescate de la Fauna Sahariana in Almeria, and their main goal was to test how the animals reacted to the climate of the northern part of the peninsula, and also, breed them. The program didn't seem to work since the terrain seemed too harsh for the gazelles, and I think that at least part of the herd was sent to Marcelle Natureza, where they still live (I'm not sure if this information is 100% right). For some reason, thins male is still living at the park.
