A picture taken on April 20, 2011 shows Cashmere goats raised for their wool at a farm in Ordos in Inner Mongolia, northwest China. The finest cashmere in the world is said to come from goats from the region of Ordos, also prized for their meat and skin. Derived from an archaic spelling of Kashmir, Cashmere is a fine wool which grows beneath the outer coarse hair of the Cashmere goat, which roam across the plateaus of northwest Asia, across China from Mongolia to Tibet, and onto India, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Iran.
