The mountain goat is one of my favorite animals not only because of their wonderful looks but mostly due to the fact that they are able to reach places other animals cannot.
Mountain Goats are very close to being on the endangered species list. Biologists are trying to stop hunters from killing them. Their hooves are adapted to the rugged slopes, they are very flexible almost like rubber. This allows them to jump from rock to rock and climb really high. They change the social groupings seasonally. The gots live in big groups during the cold winter time but prefer smaller groups, or to be even alone in the summer.
The horns help a lot to survive in dangerous situations. Another important ability is jumping. Its hooves and its teeth are also very important tools. Their horns help to defend them from predators.
I am very happy if you like my drawing.
