Rupicapra

Range of Rupicapra during the Holocene (grey) and present range (red)

Rupicapra is a genus of goat antelope called chamois. They belong to the bovine family of hoofed mammals, the Bovidae.

Two extant species are recognized. One, Rupicapra rupicapra, has no common name other than simply chamois and is native to the mountains of south and central Europe, Turkey, and the Caucasus in southwest Asia. The other species has more recently been recognized as separate from the rest: the Pyrenean chamois (Rupicapra pyrenaica). The latter are named after their native habitat, the Pyrenees (a mountain range in southwestern Europe). A 2014 study by Durham University discovered that these goats are shrinking in size due to global warming and climatic changes.
