Beceite Spanish Ibex
The Beceite Spanish Ibex hunting season is from November to January and February to May. The Beceite Spanish Ibex Hunt is done by stalking in Teruel’s game reserves in the Maestrazgo mountains. Beceite Ibex male’s horns are big, wrinkled and ringed, rise vertically and lean out in a very open way; they have plane form with the tips up. The Beceite Spanish Ibex lives in groups, in separate herds, one composed of females, kids and young males and another herd is composed of adult males. The male group only approaches the female group during the rutting season and it is at this time, (December – January). This is the best time for the Beceite Ibex Hunt.
