Lion Goat Hybrid creature concept

Designed a race of mountain based creatures, drawing from Goats and Lions. From this, created a painting of a young one. I imagine him walking in snow plains slowly, as the sun has just pierced through the lingering night sky. Walking to carry out funeral processions, dragging the body behind, covered in bells. Given to the mountains in the end, and he must trek back alone.
