Bighorn Sheep family

Jasper National Park

On our way back from Hinton we encountered a family of Bighorn Sheep grazing on the side of the road. There were two adult females, two babies, and one young sheep with stubby horns. Female Bighorn Sheep can be differentiated from female Mountain Goats by the colour of their horns: goats have shiny black horns, while sheep have beige horns.
