About the Alpine Chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra)
The Alpine Chamois is a caprid species native to the mountainous regions of northern and eastern Europe. The male chamois is slightly larger than the female, while both wear a thick, shaggy brown & auburn coat that turns a lighter shade of grey in the winter months, providing camoflage. Both males and females have short sets of sleek black horns which slightly hook at the tip. The chamois head has a unique coloration, including tan necklines and a light white shading that highlights the large black stripe under the eyes.
