IBEX OR STEINBOCK. These mountain dwellers are the liveliest members of the Goat tribe. They are found in the highest regions of the 



European Alps, spending the day in localities above the line of perpetual snow. At night they descend to the highest woods to graze, retiring at sunrise 

 to their snowy fastnesses. They jump from crag to crag with great security and facility. They live in small herds and the picture shows them as they 

 appear in their Alpine home. (Caftra ibex.)
