Bighorn Sheep -- it's a Ram of a thing

Bighorn Sheep are found in remote areas from British Columbia south to the Northern Rockies. The desert bighorn lives in the southeast U.S. and northern Mexico. A big, muscular brute, they have majestic curved horns and dark brown or buff hair. Standing 3 1/2 feet at the shoulder and weighing about 200 pounds, this ain't no goat. Grass is the bighorn's primary food, but brush and berries also do fine. If you chance meet one, give a wide berth, cause this one could give you a nasty stomach ache.
