The Changthangi goat also known as "Pashmina goat" and this
goat breed is native to cold, arid region of Ladakh in Jammu and Kashmir,
India. Generally, Changthangi goats are reared for their fine wool. However,
they can even breed for meat purpose. These
goats can survive in very cold temperatures and can live on grazing in open
fields and hills. The wool collected from these goats is being used in making the famous
Kashmir's Pashmina shawls. These shawls made from fine wool of Changthangi
breed are exported worldwide. Read more: HERE.
