努比亚羱羊（学名：Capra nubiana）是山羊属的一种动物，为生活在沙漠中的夜行性山羊，分布于北非、东北非与西亚^[2]。过去本种被视作羱羊（Capra ibex）的亚种，现已基于分子证据被分作独立物种。本种族群约有4500只成羊，现被IUCN被归为易危物种^[1]。

努比亚羱羊是体型最小的一种羱羊，肩高约为70公分，为两性异形的物种，雄羊（52—74.7公斤）体型大于雌羊（25.3—32.7公斤）^[3]^[4]。本种主要以相思树与金合欢树叶为食，取食时可爬到树上^[3]；这种山羊具社会性，羊群由雌羊与小羊组成，羊群中的雌羊具阶级（英语：Dominance hierarchy）之分，成年雄羊则大多独立生活^[3]^[5]^[4]。

希伯来圣经即有许多关于努比亚羱羊的记载，圣经人物雅亿名称的意思即为羱羊^[6]。努比亚羱羊现为以色列自然公园管理局（英语：Israel Nature and Parks Authority）的标志^[7]^[8]。也门也将努比亚羱羊视为国家象征之一^[9]^[10]。
