I wondered the same thing Nanno. That's why if it was legal in my state I would stick with goat does, but have them artificially inseminated with an alpine ibex sire. Keeping pure ibex sounds like a pain. One breeder I talked to said when he bottle raised pure alpine ibex, they tamed right up. Even tame, they still sound like escape artists when they want to.
