I think he might be pulling your leg. If it is, have him take a picture of the plug in the back or the horn.

Notwithstanding the fact that this ram doesn't look like any bighorn configuration that I've ever seen, most big Cadomin sheep tend to curl tight and carry insane mass.

I'll ask more questions but he's been elk hunting pretty hard lately in the area. Definitely not the type to travel far for an animal. Also it looks very old.

Well he took a wrong turn then and headed east to Asia.

The problem with sheep hunters, is the bullsh!t runs so deep you can never tell who is getting bullsh!tted.

I used to work with a guy what said his brother's buddy's landscaper's mechanics's uncle used to see these fairly regular in the mountains. Said the Sasquatch used'em for pack animals. Said he'd seen the little ones riding them, holding on to the horns like they was riding a motorcycle. Still undocumented cause the film in his camera froze solid in the cold and shattered when tried to take a picture. Barely got away with his life when they spotted him messing with his camera.

I'll admit it looks like a Marco Polo and I know nothing about rams. I'm suspicious now. No responses so I'm starting to smell bs. Sorry in advance if it's a dud. Thought it was a good one
