What is an "ibex"?
Ibex are wild goat species that are known for their impressive horns and their ability to thrive in rugged mountainous terrain. They are found in various regions across the world, including the European Alps, the Himalayas, and other mountain ranges in Asia and the Middle East. Ibex have distinctive, curved horns that can grow to impressive lengths, with both males and females typically having horns. Their coats are adapted to their mountain environment, with thick fur that provides insulation and helps them withstand harsh weather conditions. Ibex are agile climbers and jumpers, able to navigate steep slopes and rocky terrain with ease. They are primarily herbivorous animals, feeding on a diet of grass, leaves, and other vegetation.
