Girls Who Run The World These Badland ewes were very giddy and jumpy early in the morning. There were about 30 of them that starting running toward Travis and I as we were parked on the side of the road. We couldn't help but laugh as we watched them butt heads with one another and jump around like rabbits. Taken in the Badlands National Park.  Bighorn sheep,Ovis canadensis Click/tap to enlarge

The bighorn sheep is a species of sheep in North America named for its large horns. These horns can weigh up to 30 lb, while the sheep themselves weigh up to 300 lb. Recent genetic testing indicates three distinct subspecies of "Ovis canadensis", one of which is endangered.
