Snow Goose Alaska

Living on the edge.⁠
⁠
Recent mountain goat sightings along the cliffs of the Kenai Fjords in Alaska. Awwww.⁠
⁠
Curious about these guys? Here are a few mountain goat revelations for ya...⁠
⁠
🐐 They're not goats, not really:⁠
That's right, mountain goats are actually considered a part of the antelope family. ⁠
⁠
🐐 Skilled Cliff Climbers: ⁠
From sea level to elevations over 10,000 feet - mountain goats are expert climbers, navigating steep cliffs to avoid threats.⁠
⁠
🐐 Vulnerable Kids: ⁠
Kids must learn to climb just two weeks after birth to survive. ⁠
⁠
🐐 Year-round Locals: ⁠
Resurrection Bay's mountain goats stay put throughout the year, guaranteeing you will see a few while onboard the Snow Goose. You might even spot a nanny giving birth along the coast.⁠
⁠
🐐 Majestic Horns: ⁠
Both males and females proudly display impressive, curved horns adorned with growth rings, which serve as age markers.⁠
⁠
🐐 Snowy Camouflage: ⁠
Their white fur helps them blend into snowy landscapes. ⁠
⁠
🐐 Herbivore Specialists: ⁠
Mountain goats feast on tough alpine vegetation thanks to unique digestive systems.⁠
