Mountain goats / ibex.
I heard them before I saw them; they sometimes breathe in great snorts! They all watched me quizically and didn't move a muscle as I approached and passed them. They all just kept their eyes firmly fixed on me as I passed. It was only later as I looked back that I saw a kid suckling. I couldn't take a shot of it as the sun was directly in line. La Sierra de La Cabrera.

I wonder what their accident rate is.

Andy Rodker club has replied to Peter Chet clubI found this;
“No one knows how many of the animals fall to their deaths. It's common sense that not many knock each other off cliffs, or too few would survive. Still, researchers assume some goats do die from falls--and that such deaths play a role in natural selection for the fittest animals. In thousands of hours of observation, I've never seen fatal falls, and the goats have an amazing ability to find something to cling onto. That doesn't mean they don't get hurt. I've seen a number of goats with broken horns and limps.”
Not sure of the provenance, but hope it helps!
All best wishes,
Andy
