Balkan Chamois Hunting

Balkan Chamois (Rupicapra rupicapra balcanica) is a subspecies of chamois native to the Balkan Peninsula, known for its agility in rugged mountainous terrains. They have a stocky build, with brownish fur and backward-curving horns. These animals inhabit rocky slopes and alpine meadows in countries like Albania, Montenegro, and Serbia. They are social creatures, living in herds led by a dominant male. Active during the day, they forage for grasses and herbs. They are an important symbol of the region’s natural heritage.
