The Bezoar goat is the wild ancestor of domestic goats. This sturdy ungulate lives in the mountains and has strong legs for climbing on rocks.
The Bezoar goat differs from domestic goats by its more slender body, powerful horns, and its ability to live on steep cliffs. It is important for nature as part of mountain food chains and the ancestor of domestic goats.
