From: Cranial form differences in goats by breed and domestic status
Horn plate. Domestic goat horns (A–D,F–K) are remarkably diverse compared to the wild form (E), although horn form may be shared across different breeds (e.g., Sempione and Valais Blackneck: B,C), or may differ between the sexes of one breed (e.g., Sempione female and male: B,J). Skulls are shown in frontal view and lateral view (when available). Images are scaled approximately to similar length, i.e., they are not to scale. Note that the selection of breeds/populations shown here is not comprehensive. (A) Unknown breed (ZMB Mamm A14011); (B) Sempione, female (Naters1_Mayara); (C) Valais Blackneck (Naters_1666203); (D) unknown breed (ZMUZH 17734); (E) wild goat, Capra aegagrus (ZIN12488); (F) Capra grigia (Spirito_Florian1); (G) Pfauenziege/Taubenziege (Althus1); (H) unknown breed (AF0630); (I) unknown breed (ZMB Mamm #6658); (J) unknown breed (ZMB Mamm #6709); (K) Sempione male (“Albino” in his natural environment).
