Possibly my favourite lifetick taxon from my visit to Tierpark Hellabrunn, the wild population of this species is gradually increasing subsequent to a concerted breeding programme, which has led to the species being reclassified as Vulnerable.

What annoys me is that the Pyrenean chamois - Appennine version receives so little attention from the zoo community!
I seriously hope it does change for both the Pyrenean and Italian-Appennine subspecies before long. Some hopeful signs from zoos in Spain and France here and there.
