To the west it reaches the easternmost parts of Afghanistan. The range of the Astor markhor is very scattered.

As a result, the International Union for Conservation of Nature has rated its status as “near-threatened”. NPR February 14, 2019. And not just any goat. It’s the impressively horned markhor, the national animal of Pakistan, which can stand 4 feet tall and weigh up to 300 pounds. The hunt took place in the Gilgit-Baltistan region in the north. A photo of the hunter, identified as Bryan Kinsel Harlan, and the goat was published last week in a newspaper in Pakistan, and there’s a video featuring the hunter and the dead goat as well. Some Pakistanis were furious about the shooting. But Shafqat Hussain, an anthropology professor at Trinity College and a National Geographic emerging explorer, has a different perspective. From 1993 to 1999 he worked for the trophy hunting program that issues permits to 12 people a year to hunt a markhor. He explained to NPR why he believes this enterprise benefits both the species and the local population although he does admit there are potential pitfalls.
