Just curious if anyone on here knows what month the ibex rut. I've heard they breed year round but I've also heard they rut primarily in December. Has anyone actually seen them butting heads and going at it like bighorn or Barbary?
 
Their primary rut is in Nov. I was over on the bow hunt helping a buddy in October and have some awesome video of two little billies going at it. I've seen this a few times, but first time I was able to get video of it and the first time it was a "serious fight". I could hear the "crack/smash" from their horns 10 minutes before I picked them up in bino's. Very fun and cool to watch. We saw tons of animals as usual and had some very close encounters.
