Dear Sir,
Your selection of Ibex for news page pleased me.I am always woried about this specie,because it is also the most endangered.
I have tried to compare it with the Alpen Ibex which was extict from the Alpen Mountains of Germany,Austria and Switzerland for a century due to the over hunting.Then the King of Italy gifted some Ibexes to a Swiss King in the region of Grenzen and Masoulini of Italy gifted some ibexes to Adolf Hitler and know they are revived.It is therefore necessary to projrct this animal.
Readers can have aquick look at Alpen Ibex in comparison with our Ibex at

Hello Mahboob,
Stunning picture! Would you please clarify where exactly you have sighted this Ibex herd?
I have conducted Ibex surveys in the Khunjerab area.
