Alpine Ibex: The Toughest Animals Surviving -35°C Alpine Winters
At the foot of the European Alps lies Lake Maggiore, a massive glacial water system spanning across Italy and Switzerland. High above the shoreline in the untamed Val Grande National Park, wild stags fight for dominance during the annual rut, while poisonous ASP vipers seek shelter in subterranean burrows before winter arrives. Further up the vertical cliff faces, agile Shamoa goats and resilient Alpine Ibex brave extreme mountain conditions where temperatures drop well below freezing.
