A Lucky Find

Published:

Description

A very lucky find on the road from Jasper to Banff, Alberta.  Slammed on my brakes when I saw this ram get up.  I wouldn't have spotted him if it wasn't for the fact that he got up as his camouflage was perfectly blended with the rocks around him.  I had wanted to spot bighorn sheep for about three years and finally got the opportunity.  Of course, as soon as I pulled my butt over to the shoulder, many other cars stopped as well.  Thankfully, these bighorn are protected and completely unafraid of cars or people.  © 2013-Current.

I've seen them in zoos, but it's hard to imagine the feeling of seeing one in the wild!
