Cantabrian chamois

I had to sweat to get the shot, climbing a steep slope. The chamois kept looking at me when I got close, but when I broke the safety distance, it jumped up four times and left me behind again. In the end I was able to get this shot in motion.The Cantabrian chamois, scientifically known as Rupicapra pyrenaica parva, is a subspecies of chamois that lives on the steep slopes and peaks of the Cantabrian mountain range in northern Spain.
