Coats are white allowing the animal to blend into the snow for protection against predators. Coats have a double layer, inner layer is thick and acts as insolation while outer coat is long to repel moisture.

Hooves are split to aid in balancing during climbing, inner pads on hooves are spongy to act as a grip when climbing steep rocks. Lower legs are equipped with sharp dewclaws that will stop the animal from slipping.
