The red goral (''Naemorhedus baileyi'') is a species of even-toed ungulate in the subfamily Caprinae in the Bovidae family. It is found in India, Tibet and Myanmar. Its' natural habitats are seasonal mountainous areas 1,000 to 2,000 meters above sea level. It is threatened by habitat loss and hunting. == Origin and Discovery == The genus name ''Naemorhedus'' is derived from the Latin words ''nemus'' (genitive ''nemoris''), meaning "forest", and ''haedus'', meaning a young goat.〔"International Zoo Yearbook, Volume 7, Issue 1, Pages 225-256, January 1967"〕 Reports dating back to 1912 of a remarkable foxy-red coloured goral or goat-antelope (Nemorhaedus) from S.E. Tibet and N.E. Assam have been investigated.〔"THE RED GORAL OF THE NORTH-EAST FRONTIER REGION." - HAYMAN. John Wiley & Sons, Inc., n.d. Web. 29 Oct. 2015.〕 One of the earliest recorded references to their existence was made in 1863, however it was not until 1961 that the red goral was identified as its one species. Red goral are endemic to the region where the borders of India, Myanmar, and China meet. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「red goral」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
