Bighorn mating

 

When it comes to the mating of Bighorn Sheep, the sequence is well known.

The first step is to establish dominance over competitors. A good head butting should do this.

The second step is to pursue a fecund ewe.

The third step is to mount her…

and penetrate her. Let there be lambs.

Finally, the time has come to relax together. Life is good.

    These last three posts have been like watching a nature program on tv – such is the great quality of the images – but minus the high drama music and annoying commentary 🙂
