Description: The Siberian Ibex (Capra sibirica, Capra ibex sibirica) is a heavy-bodied wild caprid found in the mountain ranges of Central Asia, from the inner Himalayas to Mongolia. Like other wild goats, Siberian ibex prefer the higher elevations (up to 5000 meters), usually climb down to lower elevations during winter months.

This ibex is stout-bodied when compared to other species of wild goats. The fur color is variable, but is generally light tan and lacks the contrasting black and white markings on the legs. Both sexes have horns, with the horns of the males being much heavier, having several knobs on the front, and often curving backwards in pronounced arcs.

Siberian ibex are gregarious animals. Adult females and their young gather in herds of seven to thirty animals. Males form bachelor herds of similar sizes. Most feeding activity occurs during early morning and late afternoon
