Cabras en el barranco de Sopalmo, en Mojácar, Almería (España) (julio de 2020)
Capra pyrenaica. La cabra montés o íbice ibérico es una de las especies de bóvidos del género Capra que existen en Europa. Las demás especies del género son el íbice alpino (Capra ibex) y el siberiano (Capra sibirica), el tur del Cáucaso occidental (Capra caucasica) y el del Cáucaso oriental (Capra cylindricornis), así como la cabra salvaje o cabra bezoar (Capra aegagrus), el marjor (Capra falconeri), y los íbices de Nubia (Capra nubiana) y de Etiopía (Capra walie). Antiguamente repartida por el sur de Francia, Andorra, España y Portugal, hoy la cabra montés se encuentra principalmente en áreas montañosas de España y del norte de Portugal, aunque se halla en clara expansión.
Esta especie se desenvuelve por igual de día y de noche, aunque sus máximas horas de actividad se localizan por la mañana y a finales de la tarde, cerca del crepúsculo. En invierno desarrollan su actividad en las horas centrales del día, que es cuando hace más calor.
Son animales sociables, pero cambian a menudo de manada. Esta puede estar constituida por machos adultos, hembras con sus crías o adolescentes de ambos sexos (en este último caso, solo durante el verano).

The East Caucasian tur or Daghestan tur (Capra caucasica cylindricornis) is a mountain-dwelling caprine found only in the eastern half of the Greater Caucasus Mountains. The East Caucasian tur lives in rough mountainous terrain, where it eats mainly grasses and leaves and is preyed upon by wolves and lynxes. The species is listed as Near Threatened by the IUCN.
East Caucasian turs are goat-like animals with large but narrow bodies and short legs, and show significant sexual dimorphism in overall size and horn development. Adult males stand about 41 inches at the shoulder, measure 75 inches in head-body length, and weigh around 310 lbs. Adult females are 33 inches shoulder height, 54 inches for head-body length, and just 123 lbs for weight. Males have slightly lyre-shaped horns which reach 28 to 35 inches in length, while in females they are typically only 7.9 to 8.7 inches long.
The summer coat is short and sandy-yellow, with dirty white underparts. Also, dark brown stripes occur along the front surface of the legs and on the upper surface of the tail. In the winter, the coats of females and juvenile males becomes slightly greyish in colour, but otherwise remain similar. However, the winter coats of adult males are a solid dark brown, without visible stripes on the legs. Males develop a beard with their winter coats in their second year, reaching the full length of about 4.7 inches by their fourth or fifth year. Compared with other goats, the beards of East Caucasian turs are relatively stiff, and project somewhat forwards, rather than drooping down. The beard is small or entirely absent in females, and in males in their summer coats.
During the warm months, feeding occurs at intervals throughout the late afternoon, night, and morning, with the hottest hours of the day being spent resting in sheltered places. In winter, herds may remain in open pastures throughout the day, alternately grazing and resting. Daily movements may cover 9.3 to 12.4 miles. They eat almost all kinds of available vegetation, but prefer forbs in spring and summer, and grasses, trees, and shrubs in autumn and winter.
