Goat at the peak: Rare study on mountain goats | AI

For a long time, Steeve Côté has nursed a passion for a shy animal; the mountain goat. Since 1994, this professor, researcher and field worker has headed up the only long-term study in the world on the ecology and the behaviour of this little-known ungulate.
Each year for several weeks, Steeve travels several hundred kilometres north of the Jasper National Park at the heart of the Alberta Rockies.
The mountain goat is an ungulate - or hoofed - member of the family Bovidae. In North America, mountain goat populations - an estimated total of 75,000 to 110,000 individuals - reside mainly in British Columbia and Alaska.
In Alberta, the mountain goat has been suffered by a worrying decline in numbers over the twentieth century. The government decided, therefore, in 1988, to ban hunting of the species and to set up a management plan.
The study of the Caw Ridge goats will enable us to better understand group dynamics and behaviour.
