EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph by Ken Archer, taken in the majestic alpine landscapes of Colorado, we witness a tender moment between a Bighorn ewe and her newborn lamb. The Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep, scientifically known as Ovis canadensis, are native to the western United States and Canada, thriving in rugged and rocky terrain. The ewe, with her powerful and agile build, cradles her delicate lamb in a protective stance, her watchful eyes scanning the surroundings for potential threats. The lamb, still covered in spots, gazes up at its mother with curiosity and trust, oblivious to the breathtaking beauty of the alpine habitat that surrounds them. The image captures the intricate bond between mother and offspring, as well as the resilience and adaptability of these magnificent creatures. The Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep are known for their sure-footedness, allowing them to navigate steep and rocky terrain with ease. Their thick, curved horns, which can grow up to 3 feet long, serve as both protection and a means of communication. This photograph is a testament to the natural wonders that can be found in the great outdoors, and serves as a reminder of the importance of preserving the habitats of these magnificent animals. The Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep are an integral part of the ecosystem, and their presence contributes to the overall health and balance of the alpine environment. As we take in the serene scene before us, we are reminded of the delicate balance of nature and the importance of respecting and preserving the habitats of creatures like the Bighorn Sheep. This photograph by Ken Archer and Danita Delimont is a beautiful reminder of the natural world and the wonders that can be found in the great outdoors.
