Himalayan tahr

The Himalayan tahr (''Hemitragus jemlahicus'') is a large ungulate native to the Himalayas in southern Tibet, northern India and Nepal. It is listed as Near Threatened by IUCN, as the population is declining due to hunting and habitat loss.
Results of a phylogenetic analysis indicate that the Himalayan tahr is associated with wild goats, and the genus ''Hemitragus'' monospecific.〔Ropiquet, A. & Hassanin, A. (2005). Molecular evidence for the polyphyly of the genus ''Hemitragus'' (Mammalia, Bovidae). Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution 36 (1): 154–168.〕
The Himalayan tahr has been introduced to New Zealand and South Africa.
==Taxonomy and etymology==
The word "tahr" comes from the Nepali language and was first used in English writing in 1835.〔Simpson, J. A., and E. S. C. Weiner. The Oxford English Dictionary. 20 vols. 2nd ed. New York: Oxford University Press, 1989.〕 Tahrs belong to the order ''Artiodactyla'', which denotes an even-toed ungulate mammal. Close relatives to the Himalayan tahr also associated to the Caprinae subfamily include sheep and goats.〔Theodor, Jessica M. “Artiodactyla (Even-Toed Ungulates Including Sheep and Camels).” In eLS. John Wiley & Sons, Ltd, 2001. http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com.prx.library.gatech.edu/doi/10.1038/npg.els.0001570/abstract.〕
