I keep the location secret to keep it away from hunting guides.
If you found them I'm sure the hunting guides are aware of their location.

Not that anyone cares, but sheep & goats do not have any upper incisors; molars, yes (I think). Why? Open the site below.

Bovines don't have upper teeth at all. Why? They don't need 'em. (Sheep are in the Ovine Family, Goats in the Caprine Family)
All are grass eating mammals and use their tongues and upper (hard ridged) gums to tear the grass.
I know enough about 'em to be "dangerous".
C'mon veterinarians, help me out with a better explanation.

Great photos.
I can understand your wanting to keep the location secret. It would be sad to have a hunting party destroy this herd for a few wall trophy’s.

Love your images. That must have been a great experience. That broken horn will keep the old ram out of the hunter's rifle scope.

Very nice shots.. That old guy has seen his share of challengers. When horses make a face like that, it's call a Flehmen response and enables them to pick up a scent. These animals may do that for the same reason. Maybe YOU were on their radar.
