Desert Bighorn Sheep

Desert Bighorn Sheep are similar to other bighorn species in size and characteristics: both sexes grow one set of horns that they keep their entire lives; they have concave hooves that enable them to climb steep, rocky terrain; rams and ewes live in separate herds. In addition, desert bighorns have adapted to go extended periods without water, and can regulate their body temperatures, helping them thrive in extreme desert environments.
