schnautzr Member 6 May 2012 #1 Shame on me for not reading the sign... can anyone identify this Asian bovid? Guesstimate of probably 1.5-3 ft shoulder height. There's an Indian peafowl in the background for scale.

K Kifaru Bwana Well-Known Member 15+ year member 6 May 2012 #3 It is a Sichuan takin Budorcas taxicolor tibetana, mate! These goat antelope roam the Himalayans and Eastern Asian Himalayan mountain ranges of India, Nepal, Bhutan, Myanmar and China.
