多梅內克偽山羊（Domenech's pseudo-goat）或玫瑰角爪山羊是一種來自美國的神秘動物，僅有一次目擊報道，這種生物是由阿伯·伊曼紐爾·多梅內克在19世紀50年代報道的。他寫道，一位科曼奇族婦女訪問了德克薩斯州的弗雷德里克斯堡，她擁有:

”...a very singular animal about the size of a cat, but of the form and appearance of a goat. Its horns were rose-coloured, its fur was of the finest quality, glossy like silk and white as snow; but instead of hoofs this little animal had claws. This officer offered five hundred francs for it; and the commandant's wife, who also spoke of this animal, offered a brilliant of great value in exchange for it; but the Indian woman refused both these offers, and kept her animal, saying that she knew a wood where they were found in abundance; and promised, that if she ever returned again, she would catch others expressly for them.“

...一種非常奇特的動物，大約貓咪大小，但這種生物的形狀和外觀看起來很像一只山羊。它的角是玫瑰色的，它的皮毛材質是最好的，光滑的像絲綢一樣，白的像雪一樣；但這個小動物沒有長蹄子，而是爪子。那軍官出價五百法郎想要它。船長的妻子也談到了這只動物，她提出要用一件非常貴重的東西來交換它;但是印第安女人拒絕了這倆要求，只留下了她的動物，說她知道一個樹林里有很多動物。她還保證，如果她再回來，她會專門為他們捕捉其他的獵物?！?/p>

卡爾·舒克指出，結合有蹄類動物的角和非有蹄類動物的爪子的特征，這種動物就像一種遺存下來的的爪獸(除了大小)。喬治·埃伯哈特寫道，如果描述準確，那么這就是“一種分類學上的異?，F(xiàn)象”，在目前已知的化石記錄中沒有任何可以匹配這種生物的項目，盡管他注意到歷史上的確存在過一個被稱為巨弓獸科（Homalodotheriids）的脊椎動物家族，這種生物有長著爪子的腳趾，但沒有角，直到大約900萬年前才出現(xiàn)在阿根廷。
