About Siberian Ibex (Capra sibirica)
The Siberian ibex (Capra sibirica) is a species of ibex that lives in central Asia. It is the longest and heaviest members of the genus Capra, though its shoulder height is surpassed by the markhor. Siberian ibexes are large and heavily built goats, although individual sizes vary greatly. The colouration is also variable, from dark brown to light tan, with some reddish individuals.
Siberian ibexes live mostly above the tree line, in areas of steep slopes and rocky scree. Their habitat consists of a mixture of high altitude tundra, alpine meadows, and regions of semidesert.
Most Siberian ibexes are seen in central and northern Asia, Afghanistan, western and northern China (Primarily Xinjiang), north-western India, south-eastern Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, eastern Uzbekistan, Mongolia, northern Pakistan, and south-central Russia.
