Big Horn rams

Yesterday, Nancy and I walked up Waterton Canyon for some exercise and witnessed some major headbutting/fighting between these two big horn rams. We were only about 75 feet away at the time. I tried to get a video but every time I turned it on, they waited 5 or 10 minutes before they rammed each other. As soon as I put my camera down, POW! Maybe they had a headache? We stood and watched them for almost 30 minutes. So much for exercise.

And it was all for this. I counted about 6 wives and a bunch of children. Women try their luck. Men risk theirs! You know King Solomon had a thousand wives. That way, the odds were pretty good that one of them wouldn't have a headache.
