Animal description

About the Mountain Goat (Oreamnos americanus)

The mountain goat is a beautiful, albeit peculiar species, as they are not technically true goats but more properly known as goat-antelopes. The mountain goat is typically found along the western coast of Canada, and the northwestern-most parts of the US, in highly elevated mountain habitats. The mountain goat wears a thick white coat that acts as camouflage in the snowy mountaintops and great insulation against the frigid wind. In addition, the mountain goat is outfitted with small horns that grow outward and thick, soft hooves that help it navigate the dangerous mountain slopes.
