Goat-antelope

Caprinae (subfamily)

On the Web

On Wikipedia

The subfamily Caprinae is part of the ruminant family Bovidae, and consists of mostly medium-sized bovids. A member of this subfamily is called a caprine, or, more informally, a goat-antelope. However, the term goat-antelope does not mean that these animals are true antelopes, as true antelopes are bovid with a cervid-like or antilocaprid-like morphology. Within this subfamily Caprinae, a prominent tribe, Caprini, includes sheep and goats. Some earlier taxonomies considered Caprinae a separate family called Capridae (with the members being caprids), but now it is usually considered a subfamily within the family Bovidae, with caprines being a kind of bovid.
