$The Alpine ibex (Capra ibex), also known as the steinbock, is a species of goat that lives in the Alps of Europe. It is one of ten species in the genus Capra and its closest living relative is the Iberian ibex. The Alpine ibex is a sexually dimorphic species: males are larger and carry longer horns than females. Its coat colour is brownish grey. Alpine ibexes tend to live in steep, rough terrain and open alpine meadows. They can be found at elevation as high as 3,300 m (10,800 ft) and their sharp hooves allow them to scale their mountainous habitat.\n\nAlpine ibexes primarily feed on grass and are active throughout the year. They are also social, although adult males and females segregate for most of the year, coming together only to mate. During the breeding season, males fight for access to females using their long horns. Ibexes have few predators but do succumb to various parasites and diseases.\n\nAfter being extirpated from most areas by the 19th century, the Alpine ibex was successfully reintroduced to parts of its historical range. All individuals living today descend from the stock in Gran Paradiso National Park in Italy. The species is currently listed as of least concern by the IUCN, but went through a population bottleneck of fewer than 100 individuals during its near-extinction event. This has led to very low genetic diversity across populations.$
