Hybrid Ibex

The Hybrid Ibex which is known by SCI and Grand Slam Club Ovis as an official subspecies, is the cross breed between Bezoar and the domestic goat which can be hunted in certain areas of Turkey.Despite of the fact that there is no uniformity to describe hybrid specimens, distinct features that differentiate hybrid from Bezoar is their big, floppy ears and comparatively longer hair on their body. However, the most prominent difference may be the form of the horns which may flare out distinctively. The hair of this sub-species is long, the points of its horns curve outwards and the length of the horns, curled like those of the wild sheep, is between 36″ and 44″.The hunting season is between September and March and the hunt takes 7 days.
