Pyrenean Chamois
Rupicapra pyrenaica
Pyrenean chamois inhabit rugged mountain forests, cliffs, and alpine grasslands in the Pyrenees and Cantabrian Mountains. They browse grasses, herbs, leaves, buds, and shoots, moving between elevations with the seasons. Their black hooked horns are present in both sexes and can be used in clashes and defence.
