So I was taking a short hike today before our weekly snow storm, looking for lion tracks , and happened on to these young fellars.
They were quite unconcerned, like most young, they munched ,farted,pushed and shoved, went on there merry way.

Cool picture. One day I will get the chance to hunt them. I really enjoy going to colorado and watching the bighorns.

Awesome pictures, thanks for sharing. I would love to hunt these someday.

Wow, cool pix guys!

I've only seen a flash of one as we drove past a ewe on the side of the road in Gallatin Valley in MT.

It would be a real treat to spend some time around such an awesome critter.

The western mountains are just incredible

Nice pictures thanks for sharing... a bit jealous of where you get to take your daliy hikes!

I posted this before.It is the big ram I photographed several weeks ago.

As awesome as these animals are,they are very susceptible to disease,especially if they mingle with domestic livestock.They get a form of pneumonia that can sweep through a herd and kill most of the sheep in just a few months.

We are having die offs right now in a couple of our sheep units.In the 15 years that I have lived in Montana I can recall at least 5 sheep units that experienced these die offs.They will come back eventually but sometimes the State has to restock the areas and of course it takes several years to get a huntable population again.

Add to that,mountain lions eat them like candy.Sheep have a tough life.
