Alpine Ibex

I just read an article about ibex. Alpine ibex is a wild goat that lives in the Alps, Europe. They inhabit steep, rocky, grassy cliffs. Such extreme dwellings make Mount Ibex good at rock climbing. Alpine ibex, both male and female, have horns. The size of the horns of male goats is much larger and longer than the horns of female goats. These wild goats only eat plants or herbivores. Its food is grass, bushes, moss, flowers, leaves and twigs. To get to grass, they had to climb a cliff. They are able to climb nimbly because their nails have sharp edges and a concave bottom. That way, they easily gripped the steep and rocky cliffs. They are awesome animal. I think we should learn from them how to climb

Oh yes, the mountain goats! I've been to the places where they live but I've never climbed high enough to spot any, unfortunately. They seem fabulous.
