EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken by renowned nature photographer Ken Archer, we are introduced to a group of inquisitive bighorn sheep lambs exploring their alpine habitat in the breathtaking landscape of Colorado, USA. The image captures the essence of the youngsters' boundless curiosity as they peer over the edge of a rocky outcropping, gazing intently at the world below. Bighorn sheep, also known as Ovis canadensis, are native to the North American continent and are well-adapted to living in rugged, mountainous terrain. These agile animals are known for their curved, twisted horns, which can grow up to 3 feet long in males. The lambs, born in the late spring, are typically born with soft, spotted coats that help them blend in with their surroundings and protect them from predators. The alpine country of Colorado provides the perfect environment for these sheep, with its rocky cliffs, tundra, and abundant vegetation. The lambs can often be seen following their mothers, learning essential survival skills and exploring their surroundings with a sense of wonder and adventure. This photograph is a testament to the beauty and resilience of nature, as well as the innate curiosity and playful nature of these young bighorn sheep. It invites us to appreciate the wonders of the natural world and the importance of preserving habitats that allow these magnificent animals to thrive.
