Editing Pyrenean chamois (section)

==Conservation==
Like other species of chamois, it was hunted almost to [[extinction]], especially in the 1940s, for the production of [[chamois leather]]. The population has since recovered, and in 2022 was estimated to be about 50,000 mature individuals.<ref>Pérez-Barbería, F. J., García-González, R. (2004).
