Capricorns are always waiting for an attack from below. Even their eyesight is adapted to see better down the mountainside, and worse up. Therefore, in order to approach unnoticed, hunters must climb as high as possible to be above the capricorns.

The main reason for the decline in the number of ibex is poaching. Such hunting is most often done by local residents, for them this meat is often the only way to feed themselves and their family. Trophy hunters who come to Altai from all over the world pay a lot of money for licenses and escorts. This money allows the owners of hunting farms to organize the protection of wild animal populations, and also provides a good income to local residents who work as huntsmen and guides on hunting. This income saves them from the need to hunt capricorns for food.
