Takin---Unknown Zoo


Often you can use buildings/architecture in the background as a means of identifying a zoo or where an animal came from. I don't recognize the building in this background. Any ideas?

I don't think that's a takin.

I was looking around on the internet and I think this might be a Barabary sheep.

Wade-Sorry I made some kind of mistake on the computer and sent the same message three times. Also I don't know why it identified me as "Anonymous."

Paul,
I realize it is not a Takin. That is what was written on the back of the photo. It also isn't a Barbary sheep. It is a Himalayan Thar.
Himalayan Thar Hemitragus jemlahicus
are New Zealand’s largest
introduced herbivore pest.
They were introduced to New
Zealand in the early 1900’s to
provide a resource for game
hunters. They are a major pest
of alpine regions.

Paul,
I assumed the posts were yours, and you just wanted to REALLY get your message across. LOL
If you have been on Buckles Blog, I suggest you picked up one of those "anonymous virus's". Make sure you didn't pick up a "cute name virus" also. If I get a post from "More of a White Tiger expert then Wade Burck" I will moderate it in a heart beat, trust me. LOL
If you click anonymous and don't sign your name it will come up anonymous. If you click anonymous and sign your name it will be headed anonymous, but have your name. Click name/URL and sign your name, then it comes up on the heading instead of anonymous. That's what the "cute names" do it on Buckles Blog.
Enjoy hearing from you,
Wade

Paul,
You have to take you finger of the mouse. If you rest it there, it will sometimes post multiple times. LOL
