The Rut Is On At Zion
I’ve probably driven the road through the eastside of Zion National Park well over 2,000 times(Was a park ranger there) and had never seen so many Desert Bighorn Sheep as I did the other day. Must of been 40 of them including 10 Rams. It’s the rutting season and seemingly everyone showed up. This was at 7:00 a.m.
These images had an ethereal look to them because the backdrop is Checkerboard Mesa, one of the most scenic sandstone features at Zion. Video to follow.

Zion National Park’s Desert Bighorn Sheep
Zion National Park in Utah is not renowned for its wildlife but one species found here that I find interesting is the Desert Bighorn Sheep. They subsist on the vegetation in the park and prefer the steep rocky slopes. They are a bit sensitive to humans but you can see them on the east side of the park.
