A Chorus Line

A Chorus Line
by Miles Hecker
The Photograph

The North Fork of the Shoshone River cuts a deep canyon through the rugged Absaroka Mountains as it descends from the eastern boundary of Yellowstone National Park to the Wyoming prairie that lies to the east of the park.

In the second and third week of December, the open meadows that are situated to the south of the river turn into a bighorn sheep field of honor. Rival rams in rut fight for dominance and the right to breed as the ewes look on. During rut bighorn sheep often form lines like you see in the picture above.The oldest and biggest sheep tries to dominate the younger ones with posturing and kicking to show that he is indeed the boss. These battles often occur right next to the paved road. At the height of rut, head butting commences. You can often hear the crack of horns echo down the canyon
