CHAMOIS

The chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra) is a ruminating mammal of the family Bovidea, order Artiodactyla found in south Europe and west Asia. They are a goat-like antelope similar in appearance to the Alpine Ibex, but are small, more slender and easily recognised by the bold black and white head markings.
