place. I took a shot at this one as it stood facing me & it fell down dead at the mouth of the cave & stuck there. It was too dark to send for this one the sun having set. Next morning we found it in the cave dead having been shot through the mouth. It had an old wound in the shoulder & this is why it had taken refuge in the cave. On skinning it I found a large fetus ready for birth with hair & well formed hoofs & teeth. The kids are born I should say the first & second weeks in May as evidenced by these embryos. Today was my best as regards marksmanship. I shot 2 gorals at 300 yds, one with a single & the other in 2 shots & a third goral I shot from above the cliff hitting in with both shots each of which were fatal. I had only one miss & bagged 3 gorals.
