Rupicapra rupicapra
The wild goat can be found in Macedonia’s rocky and high mountain regions, such as Mavrovo National Park, Bistra, Stogovo, Korab, and the entire Shara Mountain. In winter they descend to lower areas, and enter the forest areas. They often choose inaccessible terrain and have excellent vision, so you must be especially careful not to be seen.
The wild goat comes out to pasture early in the morning and in the evening, and during the day rests in rocky niches or caves with good visibility of the environment.
While you are hunting or just watching, you can enjoy the beautiful mountainous terrain: the winter atmosphere or, even better, at the end of summer, when the hunting season starts and when you can more frequently encounter the he-goat, a powerful animal that is a symbol of strength and great energy.
