- Abstract
- The fine undercoat fibres removed from wild goats hunted for meat and
trophy, principally belonging to sub-species of Capra ibex, are used as an
alternative to Shatoosh, the hair of the endangered Tibetan antelope
(Pantholops hodgsonii). Although currently legal, the large-scale use of
these fibres (known as Yangir), and hybridisation of ibex with domestic
goats to improve fibre fineness and yield, would severely threaten the
conservation of wild ibex. SEM investigation showed morphological
differences in the cuticle cell pattern of fine fibres from domestic
Cashmere goat, wild Yangir goat and Tibetan antelope. The study of the DSC
traces revealed differences in the enthalpy of denaturation of the
crystallites. This information enables the identification of the fibres,
including those from lots submitted to dehairing processes, such as are
commonly found in the animal fibre trade. (literal)
