A Noble Aegagrus of the Alps, Circa 1850 This evocative image captures the essence of the Aegagrus, a native goat breed that has roamed the rugged Alpine landscapes for centuries. The Aegagrus, also known as the Alpine Ibex or the Steintobel goat, is a symbol of the rich natural history and resilient spirit of the Alps. The photograph, taken circa 1850, presents a majestic Aegagrus standing proudly on a rocky outcropping, its shaggy coat a testament to the harsh Alpine climate. Its curved horns, which can grow up to 1 meter in length, are a distinctive feature of this breed, which has adapted to the challenging terrain and weather conditions of the Alps. The Aegagrus is believed to have inhabited the Alps since the last Ice Age, around 10,000 years ago. These goats are well-known for their agility and sure-footedness, allowing them to navigate the steep, rocky slopes with ease. They are also excellent climbers, able to ascend vertical cliffs and traverse narrow ledges. Historically, the Aegagrus was an essential source of food and milk for the people living in the Alpine regions. Their meat was prized for its rich flavor and tender texture, while their milk was used to make cheese, butter, and other dairy products. Today, the Aegagrus is a protected species, with populations carefully managed to ensure their continued survival. This photograph serves as a reminder of the important role that native species play in shaping the natural and cultural landscapes of our world. Mary Evans Picture Library is proud to offer this rare and captivating image of the Aegagrus, a glimpse into the past that transports us to the heart of the Alps and the remarkable creatures that call it home.
