Episode 4 : Le Chamois – Version anglaise

Did you know that a chamois’s heart is about twice the size of a human’s and that its blood contains three to five times more red blood cells? These exceptional adaptations allow it to efficiently oxygenate its muscles and tackle steep elevation gains without ever becoming short of breath. Agile and fast, it is nevertheless very sensitive to disturbances caused by human activities, particularly in winter and during the breeding season.
