Does anyone know what sort of animal this is?

It is probably one of the rarest game animals in the world.

A male was recently taken for US $15 000...probably not what you want to know in the photography section?

Just a wild guess.
An albino Himalayan Tahr
Forget the Trophy fee. The photo itself is worth a few hundred dollars.

Well done. A wild guess for a wild animal...very good but I I'm sorry I can't give you an "A".
Its a white phase tahr.
A friend of mine went to Nepal recently and couldn't find any reports of white tahr from the Himalayas...that doesn't mean to say they don't exist there.
The first white tahr cropped up in New Zealand in the early 1980s and since that time they keep appearing from the same area.
It's not a good colour in New Zealand for long term survival but the genes seem to be surviving.

No. I don't think so.
Looks more like a young Big Horn Sheep. This particular fellow with not so "big" horns.

Here's some bigger horns for you but they're softer.

ELK BULLS versus RED STAGS

Scientists have reclassified the relationship between Elk bulls and Red Stags.

I was out walking a couple of days ago and I was lucky enough to get some good photographs that show the variation in the development of Elk and Red Stag antlers in New Zealand.

It's now the end of October yet the red stag in the picture has still got both of its antlers.

In contrast with the elk which has dropped its antlers and already has a rack of velvet...I find this very interesting and it must surely show that there is a fundamental difference between the two animals.
