Where else, from Omega Parc last weekend. Not sure of the official name of this animal but they could sure navigate the rocks.

Ian - if you still have the map, you want to look this one up.

Wow,. those are geogous! I love these big guys :)

Is it just a "mountain goat" .. or something more exotic sounding?

Wow, that second one is superb!

I wish that our driver had turned the car around - I couldn't see the buggers!

OK OK Where? Nice shots. Its always better to shoot animals with a canon, a riffle is so messy.

Pssst: Alpine Ibex Yeah yeah, blame the guide:):):)
Did I tell you that Liz lives in Rigaud down by the river?
Just checked out the map and there is a photo of this guy (goat, not Scott) but no name.
We'll call him "Justabiggoat":):):):):):):):)

What language is that? Does it mean "Excuse me but I really need to use the restroom?"

BTW, good call, Scott! :D

I was too lazy to look it up myself and I thought Ian could use the exercise of finding the map again.

I used to see mountain goats a lot up at Glacier National Park the year I lived in Great Falls but they were always sort of a dirty white in color, not brown. I don't know if their horns get quite that big but they do have a similar curvature. The fur color in your photos look rather like the color of Bighorn Sheep but the horns are very different. So I'm still wondering.... :confused:

That's kind of you, thinking about Ian's health and all. At first I thought you wanted to hear about him suffering on the long, cold walk out to the Aztek. But your concern for his wellbeing is touching.

#2 looks like he can just jump out the pic. Fantastic.
