Bighorn Sheep In the Snow

Winter conditions were still holding on in the Rockies when I took this shot of a couple of Rams who were no doubt dreaming of warmer conditions and spring pasture. The horns of bighorn sheep (ovis canadensis) rams can weigh up to 14 kg (30 lb), while the sheep themselves weigh up to 140 kg (300 lb). Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada

Big sheep O_O they must have some serious neck muscles on them to hold those horns up?

Yep. They are tough creatures.
