The chamois

"The scree and grassy bumps provide the perfect grounds for the chamois to inhabit. Distant cousin of the antelope, it is much more at ease than the ibex in the snow. Its small hooked horns of ebony black and its white and black striped mask make it easy to recognise. Open your eyes, get out your binoculars, and most importantly listen to the mountain; just a few rolling rocks are enough to identify the presence of these animals. With a bit of luck, you can see the little ones play on a névé under the watchful eye of their mothers who gather them in a ""nursery"" to better guard them."
