英文摘要	The Asiatic ibex (Capra sibirica), the largest member of the genus Capra, is widely distributed in Central and South Asia. It is a primitive ibex species of the family Bovidae that is distinct from other ibex species. The Asiatic ibex is native to highland landscapes characterized by challenging terrains that have resulted in incomplete knowledge of this species. To understand the research advances in this species, this review summarizes the taxonomic position, global distribution, population size, foraging ecology, sexual segregation, health threat by diseases, and potential threats and conservation biology. Besides, this species is facing increasing impacts of anthropogenic activities and habitat loss induced by global climate change. It also proposes new research perspectives and priorities to understand the advanced ecology of the Asiatic ibex. We also highlight a suite of research gaps that require multidisciplinary approaches. These will increase understanding of the evolution, biology, ecology, and epidemiology of this species.
