Well these creatures are well named as they inhabit the high altitude of the Jasper and Banff National Parks in Canada. Amidst the almost lunar terrain and with snow a constant companion, we follow a flock - though that seems an oddly inappropriate noun - of these bighorn sheep as the ewes rear their very woolly lambs while the rams seem to spend most of their time bickering with each other. It’s that latter activity that allows the photographer to capture, frequently in slow motion, some of the rutting that goes on as well as show us some of the beautifully chilly scenery of Alberta’s untainted wilderness. I liked the fact that there was no narration just natural sound as horns lock, wind blows, water trickles and with the sun setting towards the end of this short feature, I felt everything was right with the world! Worth a watch.
