Catherine Rowan Jones/Ivy FoxWonderful!
There's a fascinating #podcast about this animal, the only one in its genus Oreamnos:
Oreamnology (MOUNTAIN GOATS ARE NOT GOATS) with Julie Cunningham — alie ward
Mountain goats are not goats. And there’s only one living species, Oreamnos americanus. WHAT?? Montana-based wildlife biologist and Oreamnologist Julie Cunningham counts mountain goats from helicopters, traps and tests them for science, and spends even her off-days searching for goats on mountaint
Børge Klit Johansen@crestonbunch Stunning photo. Congratulations.
