From the article:
the British Isles were linked to the continent around this time

"How would an Ibex 'stray' from Europe to Britian?"

During the Ice Age (12,000 years ago) Britain was connected to the continent because the oceans were 300-500 feet lower. (Btw, the Red Sea was landlocked and the Persian Gulf was completely dry..and a lot of other 'stuff'...)

The Ibex migrated during the Ice age with the Rolex,Kotex,Kleenex,and the rare Pyrex. Although the Ibex is no longer in Britain the other four can still be found.
