The great Iberian Ibex

The mounted head of an Iberian Ibex at the ‘Centro de Visitantes Torre del Vinagre’ (Parque Natural de las Sierras de Cazorla, Segura y Las Villas, Spain).

Upon the cliffs, the ibex stands,
With hooves that dance on rugged lands.
Its horns, a crown, both strong and high,
Pierce the edge of earth and sky.
Through windswept peaks, in morning light,
It leaps with grace, a fearless flight.
Majestic, wild, and bold it roams,
The mountain’s king, the heights its home.
