Spanish Ibex

3 zoos in the world currently have Spanish ibex, those zoos are Teipei Zoo, Madrid Zoo and Aquarium and Barcelona Zoo, I remember seeing them as a kid at San Diego Zoo and I miss them, I guess I will have to get myself to Spain, I have family in Madrid so I might as well go see my family then hit the zoo so I can see them, kills two birds with one stone, but the truth is I care more about the Spanish ibex

If you check Zootierliste you can see they are kept in more than those 3 zoos. And i believe there are some in Portugal too.

according to zootierliste, It looks like no facility in portugal has them but one other spanish zoo that isnt Barcelona or Madrid does have them

Where did San Diego get Spanish ibex from in the first place? Did any other American zoos have them?

My guess would be that San Diego Zoo got their Spanish ibex though importations that Jim Dolan could have made (He got the zoo Siberian musk deer, Persian fallow deer an some other rare and interesting species), and to answer your other question I think Bronx Zoo may have had Spanish ibex long ago (I vaguely remember reading that in Lee Crandall's book "The Management of Wild Mammals in Captivity), but don't quote me on that

I found a more accurate answer as to how San Diego Zoo sourced their Spanish ibex, they got them from the Beijing Zoo, Beijing Zoo got their Spanish ibexes from Madrid Zoo, Madrid Zoo gave Beijing Zoo Spanish ibex in exchange for Giant pandas.

I found more information on the Spanish ibexes that Bronx Zoo had, I found this info in Lee S Crandall's book The Management of Wild Mammals in Captivity, here is what it says

"In the Spanish ibex (Capra pyrenaica) the flattened, cross ridged horns rise from the forehead and flare outward then backwards over the neck in a partial spiral, the tips rising. Four races have been recognized from the mountains of Spain and Portugal, but of these two are considered to have become extinct and the third greatly reduced, only Capra pyrenaica hispanica still existing in some numbers in scattered areas of southern Spain, the typical coloration is light brown, the males having dorsal stripe, beard, chest, and outer surfaces of legs black and a dark line on the sides above the white of the underparts, females and young are distinctly marked. The shoulder height is given by Lydekker as 27 - 32 inches . The Spanish ibex is now, of course, extremely rare in zoological gardens and may even be nonexistent in collections. Two males and one female were received by the Bronx Zoo on January 11, 1902, and a second female on April, 5, 1905. Five births occurred, one in March, four in April. The greatest longevity recorded at the Bronx Zoo was that of a female born on April, 10, 1906, which died on June, 23, 1921, after 15 years, 2 months, 13 days."
