The Cretan Ibex as emblem of the HSPN

The Cretan Ibex as emblem of the HSPN

From the very first issue of our bulletin, we adopted as the emblem of HSPN, the Cretan Ibex as depicted on a coin of Presos dating to the 4th century. The choice of “Agrimi”, as the Ibex is called in Crete, was not random. All Societies like ours have an emblem; a bird, an animal or a wild flower, among the most distinct in their region, among those considered as most endangered. The Cretan Ibex fulfils these criteria for us. An additional reason is that HSPN, even from its first steps, has striven for the conservation of this wonderful animal.
