The Goat of the Spanish Legion (Spanish: Cabra de la Legión Española) is the traditional mascot of the Spanish Legion military corps. A representative of the species usually accompanies the legionaries in military parades. It is usually dressed in a ceremonial garment, either a cloak bearing a military emblem or, occasionally, a side cap or hat. The goat is usually formally given the name "Carlos V", although it is commonly nicknamed "Manoli" (a diminutive of "Manuela").

dbo:abstract
  • El macho cabrío de la Legión Española es la mascota tradicional de este cuerpo militar. Un ejemplar de la especie suele acompañar a los legionarios en los desfiles que realizan. Normalmente va ataviada con alguna prenda, bien sea un manto con su correspondiente emblema, o en ocasiones, un chapiri o gorro legionario. Esta recibe el nombre de Carlos V aunque vulgarmente se llama Manoli. Pese a que el animal que finalmente se afianzó en el puesto fue la cabra, la legión tuvo históricamente otras mascotas. En primer lugar, monos originarios de Ceuta, para más tarde sucederse monos de Gibraltar, ejemplares de arrui, osos e incluso loros amaestrados para decir palabras soeces.​En los desfiles de los últimos años también se ha podido ver a un carnero al que, a veces, han pintado los cuernos de color oro.

The goat is usually formally given the name "Carlos V", although it is commonly nicknamed "Manoli" (a diminutive of "Manuela"). Although the goat was eventually popularized as the representative of the Spanish Legion, the force has had other animal mascots. First, it had monkeys originating from Ceuta, followed by Barbary apes from Gibraltar, Barbary sheep, bears, and even parrots trained to say profanities. Recent parades have also sometimes featured a ram, whose horns are occasionally painted gold. (en)
