Male horns grow upward, then curve out and back, with the tips pointing up or down; females’ horns are much shorter and grow up and back. Adult males in winter pelage are grayish to pale brown to whitish on the side of head, throat, and upper front and sides of the neck, as well as on the upper sides of the body, extending to the hindquarters. The forehead, beard, front and back of the neck, chest, brisket, and front of the shoulder and legs are black; there is a dark mid-dorsal stripe extending to the dark tail. There is usually a dark line of variable width extending from the dark back of the lower neck around the base of the neck to the dark chest. The lower sides of the body, the front of the upper hindlegs, and the lower front legs are black; the dark area of the lower body can be continuous with the dark area of the front shoulder. A narrow white rump patch, not extending above the base of the tail, is continuous with the white of the back of the hindlegs and white belly; the back of front leg is also white. Females have a uniformly brown body, except for white underparts, but also have a dark mid-dorsal stripe. Diploid chromosome numberis 60.

Habitats range from alpine to subalpine and lower elevations in open and closed pine and oak forests, shrublands, areas dominated by grasses and forbs, and mixtures of these types and, rarely, cultvated fields. These habitats are in or in proximity to rocky, rough, precipitous terrain that is essential for escape cover. Tall vegetation, when available, is used for thermal cover.

between July and September. Females occupy habitats with a lower component oftall vegetation, probably to better detect predators, and closer to rugged terrain, especially during and after parturition. After the breeding season, males may spend the summer in forested areas; females use more open areas. Larger mixed groups usually occur in open areas where visual communication is facilitated. In some areas, habitat use may be influenced by human disturbance: the ibexes may select habitats of lower quality that are farther from humans.

Of the 126 plant species available, 36 species were detected in fecal samples. Population density was negatively correlated with diet diversity. Males consumed a higher percentage of browse than females. Diets were most influenced by plant diversity and structure, accessibility, and seasonal precipitation. In southern

), free-ranging sheep (called “Mouflons”), and Common Fallow Deer (Dama dama) were sympatric, diet overlap was greater between wild and free-ranging domestic species than between wild and domestic ungulates. All species increased their intake of browse during winter, which was the season when competition was most likely to occur. There was a greater diversity of diet in wild species, and diversity of diets increased with decreasing ungulate densities. There was also a high dietary overlap of browse between Iberian Ibexes and Western Red Deer (Cervus elaphus). The greater the availability of palatable forage, the greater the amount of time spent foraging.

Prior to parturition, females separate from young of the previous year and most yearlings leave female herds. Mating occurs in November-December. Males are polygynous, mating with several females. Older males do most of the mating. The presence of adult males probably stimulates ovulation in adult females. Females in the wild first give birth at age three and may reproduce until the age of 13. Gestation lasts 175-185 days; parturition occurs in May and earlyJune in rugged, rocky, steep terrain, where newborns are safer from predators. Twinning is rare. In some areas, females with young and yearlings use habitats with tall vegetation, probably because tall vegetation affords cover. In south-eastern

, neonates suckle 3-3 times/hour, but after a week, suckling frequency decreases to 1-6 times/hour. During the same period, the duration of suckling bouts decreased from 77 seconds to 26-5 seconds. The ratio of young (0-1 year old) per female ranged from 0-30 to 0-58 in one population during six years and 0-68 to 0-81 in another population during two years; higher survival was correlated with higher spring precipitation. Kid—ewe ratios ranged from 35-3 to 94 kids:100 ewes, and yearling—ewe ratios ranged from 12-5 to 44-8 yearlings:100 ewes. Annual yearling survival in two populations monitored for three years each ranged from 21% to 53% (females: 9-54%; males: 31-85%). There was a positive correlation between yearling survival and annual precipitation in August and September. Annual survival of young 0-1 years old was lower in populations with higher adult densities. Females can live up to 15 years in the wild.

Foraging usually occurs in early morning and late in the day, with a midday rest period. They were observed feeding at night during summer and on moonlit nights. Adult females spend more time feeding during winter and spring than during the autumn mating season and summer. Females become more mobile in spring, when forage availability increases, and they engage in more agonistic behavior. Adult males spend more time in social interactions than females. In high-elevation areas, they use south-facing slopes in autumn and winter, and north-east-facing slopes during warm weather in spring and summer. In all seasons except winter, they use eastfacing slopes in mornings and west-facing slopes in afternoons.

In spring, males form separate herds from females and occupy different elevations. Segregation occurs even in areas where they occupy the same elevation. Iberian Ibexes have a high dispersalability, about 1-2— 1-8 km/year. In high-elevation areas, there is a seasonal movement from lower elevations in winter to increasingly higher elevations as the snow line recedes. Home ranges are larger in spring than in winter. Most densities recorded varied between 1-2 ind/ km? and 4-4 ind/km?, with the highest density exceeding 15 ind/km?. In south-eastern

Adult sex ratios were 1-100 males:77-192 females. Ratios of yearling males to yearling females were 100:14-170. During the monitoring of two populations for a total of nine years (one population for five years and the other for four years), the sex ratio favored females in only one year, indicating that during the first year, males had a higher survival rate, but adult sex ratios favored females due to the higher mortality of adult males. The highest percentage of mixed herds is in October (36:8%), November (63-6%), and December (45-2%), which coincides with the mating season.
