I was in Jardin des planted in 2007 and they had a herd of a goat species. they looked like Markhor - horns etc where the same however they were all pure white? anybody know what they were?

Pure white? The only pure white goat that I found at Jardin des Plantes (via Zootierliste) is the Mountain goat (Oreamnos americanus).... but this species doesn't have markhor-like horns.

How about Racka, a Hungarian domestic sheep. They have markhor-like horns and one of their common colour phase is pure white?

They had a group of very impressive rocky mountain goat there last year though they have small relatively straight horns .
