The most notable feature of this figurine is the beautifully painted multi-color face, which is a striking representation of the chamois's unique facial markings. The reverse curved horns, characteristic of male chamois, are intricately sculpted and painted with remarkable accuracy.

The realistic hair texture of the Papo Chamois is another standout feature, adding to the lifelike quality of this figurine. Its eye-catching appearance and meticulous attention to detail make it a very nice piece that is sure to impress.

Chamois Information:

The chamois is a species of mountain goat-antelope found in the European Alps, the Carpathian Mountains, and the Apennine Mountains of Italy. They are well adapted to the harsh alpine environment, with specially designed hooves that provide excellent grip on the rocky terrain, allowing them to climb steep slopes and traverse difficult terrain.

Chamois have short, light brown fur, which becomes darker in winter. Males and females can be distinguished by their horns, with males having larger and more curved horns. They are relatively small, with a height of around 80-100 cm and a weight of 30-60 kg.

Chamois are herbivores, feeding on a variety of vegetation including grasses, leaves, and shrubs. They are most active during the day, and spend much of their time on rocky ledges or in steep terrain, where they are safe from predators. Their natural predators include wolves, lynx, and eagles.

The chamois is a highly valued game animal, and is hunted for its meat and hide. However, in recent years, conservation efforts have helped to increase the chamois population, and hunting regulations have been put in place to ensure sustainable hunting practices.
