Bighorn Sheep mating seems to involve lopsided urges. My (admittedly casual) observations are that the only concession a female makes is to turn up to the rut. Beyond that, she seems uninterested in any ensuing activity.
A ram pursues an uninterested ewe. His tongue is out to sample her flank for a sign of oestrus.
The ewe tries to escape the ram’s amorous advances.
Ultimately she merely lies down and adopts a position where she cannot be mated (even when in oestrus, she remains passive). He sits nearby biding his time. I got bored and wandered away.
A very nice sequence, Alistair.
