          The climbing ability of the ibex is so
        
        
          good that it has been seen standing on
        
        
          the steep face of a dam where it licks
        
        
          the stonework to get salt.
        
        
          Ibexes are a species of wild goat that
        
        
          live in mountains. Agile and hardy
        
        
          animals, they are able to climb on
        
        
          steep mountain sides and survive
        
        
          on sparse vegetation. The males
        
        
          have large, curved horns that
        
        
          they use to fight other
        
        
          males during the mating
        
        
          season.
