I met this markhor at the L.A. Zoo where he was repeatedly ramming his
horned head against a wrapped tree trunk. In lieu of ramming heads with
another markhor, I suppose. The markhor is the largest of the wild goats
and is the national animal of Pakistan. It is indigenous to the mountains
of Pakistan, Afghanistan and Tajikistan. It is endangered because of the
trophy hunters who travel to kill it and collect its spectacular “rack.”
