The Big Himalayan Goat and the Shepherd from Himachal Pradesh The goats in the Himalayas and the Tibetan plateau in its rain shadow, yield the best Pashmina wool that money can buy. While "Capra hircus" from the higher reaches of 14-16000 feet found in Ladakh is much shorter, the ones found in the Himalayas are not so short and the fine undergrowth that makes pashmina is minimal in the Himalayan goats. I chanced upon this Himachali nomad at about 7000 feet in the backyards of Shimla
