Hopefully this works. I have hunted 17 different species of big game in the US. Without question archery ibex in NM was the most challenging. They are crazy agile, defy gravity and are very smart. I have seen them post guard - 2 nannies on big rocks watching their backtrail while they fed - other nannies traded places after 15 minutes. I have watched them climb and walk around in trees standing on branches 2" in diameter that bent as they put weight on them. Insane.
I have sat back and watched them climb, and bed, on the sides of cliffs you would not think a mouse could stand still on. The kids run along the sides of shear cliffs.
I have never taken one. I did 2 archery hunts and got shots at mature billies from 40-50 yards both times. I consider getting those 2 shots my 2 biggest hunting accomplishments.
