Abstract

Evaluation and monitoring of ungulate populations, particularly the bezoar ibex (Capra aegagrus Erxleben, 1777). The study evaluated the distribution, gender-age composition, and altitudinal zonation of bezoar ibex populations in Nagorno-Karabakh’s Mrav, Kusanats, and Bardutagh ranges (1999–2023). A total of 6,707 individuals were analyzed, revealing a female-biased gender ratio, high juvenile mortality, and age-specific survival trends. Poaching remains a significant threat to population dynamics.
