Himalayan serow (Capricornis thar)

the local Assamese form of Himalayan serow is red and resembles the red serow ([i]C. rubidus[/i]) of Burma. I only saw one serow at the zoo and he was resting behind a tree so this was the best shot I could get. I thought it is a much nicer-looking species than the southeast Asian serows I am more familiar with.

For everything else at the zoo, see my review here: http://www.zoochat.com/254/visit-assam-state-zoo-guwahati-10-a-358287/
