The Bezoar goat ( Capra aegagrus) is smaller than the European Capricorn, but still considerably larger than our House Goat. The length of the adult buck is about 1.5 M. the height of the withers is 95 cm. and that of the cross 2 cM. more. The very large and robust, compressed on both sides, sharply edged on the back and front, but rounded and arched horns on the outside, the length of which already exceeds 40 cm in the case of medium-sized animals, and in the old often more than 80 cm. are strongly and uniformly curved from the root.
