94 RECORDS OF BIG GAME 
Antlers of Tian-Shan Roebuck. From a photograph lent by Mr. Carl Hagenbeck. 
The ASIATIC ROEBUCK (Capreolus pygargus). 
Paler and larger than the last, the height at the shoulder varying 
from 30 to 34 inches ; the ears shorter and more hairy, the white rump- 
patch larger, and the antlers longer and more rugose with numerous 
knotted snags or “ pearls.” 
Distribution.—From the northern Caucasus, the Altai, and mountains 
of Turkestan to Eastern Siberia. The typical representative is 
the Altai roebuck. The Tian Shan race (C. p. teanshanicus) has 
antlers somewhat different in form and more branched. In one 
type of this race the antlers diverge widely, with 4 or 5 tines each, 
but in a second the divergence and the number of tines are less,
