A mountain goat-like animal indigenous to the Nal'Shin Highlands in the province ot Tat'Sahr. Prized for its soft wool, which is often refered to as 'Vulcan cashmere'.
Hardy and nimble, the Sha'amii can subsist quite well on a diet of thistles and shrubs, but there are domesticated varieties (often distinguished by the different spelling "sham'amii") that appreciate a handful of grain. The Sham'amii are taller and more stocky than their wild and semi-wild cousins and are kept for their milk.
