The Alpine ibex is not threatened at this point in time, although this species has been hunted ruthlessly for its magnificent horns, and because of the belief that parts of its body hold pharmaceutical qualities. Remarks Capra(Latin) a she-goat.Ibex(Latin) a kind of goat, a chamois. ...
Diet selection by Spanish ibex in early summer in Sierra Nevada Feeding strategy of the Spanish ibex Capra pyrenaica was compared in two altitudinal zones of the Sierra Nevada, the high zone between 2700 and 3300 m a.s... T Martinez - 《Acta Theriologica》 ...
Ibexes are herbivores, dining on shrubs, bushes and grasses; grazing in particular accounts for a significant part of the alpine ibex's eating habits. The low nutritional value of their diet means the ibex must spend much of the day eating, becoming active in the afternoon and feeding through...
Analysing the isotopic life history of the alpine ungulates Capra ibex and Rupicapra rupicapra rupicapra through their horns. The horn of ungulate grazers offers a valuable isotopic record of their diet and environment. However, there have been no reports of the spatio-temporal va... ICR Barbosa,...

Alpine ibexFaecal indices are used to describe spatiotemporal patterns of diet quality in wild herbivores, and near infrared spectroscopy methods (NIRS) distinctively reduce costs and labour compared to conventional chemical analyses. In this study we compared the prediction accuracy of faecal nitrogen ...
