Cretan Goat
The Cretan Goat, also known as the Kri-Kri, is a wild goat native to the island of Crete in Greece. It is characterized by its impressive curved horns and a robust body, adapted to the rugged terrain of the island. The Kri-Kri primarily feeds on grasses, shrubs, and herbs, making it well-suited for its natural habitat.
This goat species is considered a symbol of Cretan wildlife and is often found in protected areas, such as the Samaria Gorge. Conservation efforts are in place to preserve the Kri-Kri population, as it faces threats from habitat loss and hunting.
