Kri-kri – Capra aegagrus creticus
Kri-Kri is also known as the cretan goat, Agrimi or Cretan Ibex.
It was considered as a subspecies of wild goat, but it was recently discovered as a wild variety of domestic goat.
This ungulate native to the eastern Mediterranean, lives on the island of Crete, in Greece and on three small islands just offshore (Dia, Thodorou and Agii Pantes).
Its coat is light brown with a darker band around its neck and with two horns on its head.
In nature, it is shy and quiet during the day. It avoids the tourists and it can climb steep cliff.
