Adult male, R r rupicapra. Paddock near Zoo exit (there was an infant on the Island, which I presume is why he was separated). Blackpool, 22nd July 1983. Scanned from a Kodachrome slide.

A species I sorely wish we would once again have within the UK!

@TeaLovingDave Just go to Picos de Europa National Park in Spain and you will see tons of these.

Well, I'd see Pyrenean Chamois which is a different species. But yes, I'd love to get there at some point.

@TeaLovingDave Oh yeah, fair point, but yes check that National park out in the future as it is superb for wildlife watching.

It's definitely on my list particularly as I have yet to see Pyrenean Chamois full stop.

@TeaLovingDave If you visit that park you will eventually get tired of seeing them, they are pretty easy to spot and in high numbers.
