King of the Mountain

King of the  Mountain,  He is ready for the Next challenger .

The big horn sheep dot the west from Canada to Mexico. Residing mainly in mountainous regions and rough terrain any where from dry desert mountains to the wet forests of British Columbia .   The Rams can weigh up to 500 lbs .

I did get the pleasure of seeing a duel of 2 rams. Opposite side of a canyon from them I watched them and heard the loud clack of the horns meet time after time.  Hard to believe  how loud that is when they bash to gather. It seemed like a good 30 minutes they kept at it.  Until the weaker one gave up.

This is reminiscent of that day I watching em duke it out .
