mountain goats
Rocky cliff dwellers
Mountain goats are stocky, sure-footed mammals native to the steep rocky terrain of North American mountains.
Despite the name, they're more closely related to antelopes than true goats.
Their white coats and black horns make them distinctive.
We spotted mountain goats on the cliff face.
Mountain Goats is also an American indie folk band.
