Markhor

A large wild goat found in Pakistan, Afghanistan and northern India.

The Markhor is divided into three subspecies:

1. The Astor markhor

2. Tthe Bukharan markhor

3. The Kabul markhor.
   

   The majestic mammal, the national animal of Pakistan, is one of the more sexually dimorphic animals in the wild.
   
   Males get well over 200 pounds, have an exaggerated amount of hair extending from their chin/chest and, most notably, have spectacular spiraling horns atop their heads.
   
   Females:
   horns are less dramatic,
   throats less hairy and bodies a lot less stout.
   However, both sexes graze on grass and live in mountain elevations as high as 3,000 meters.
