Roadside Snack Time - Bighorn Sheep's Salty Delight in Montana!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this hilarious snapshot captured by FLPA photographer Bill Coster, we witness a heartwarming moment between an adult female Bighorn Sheep and her curious little companion. As they roam the picturesque roads of Montana during a crisp October day, these majestic creatures stumble upon an unexpected treat - salt! With their tongues outstretched and eyes gleaming with excitement, this mother-daughter duo indulges in some unconventional roadside dining. Who needs fancy restaurants when you can savor the delectable taste of mineral-rich asphalt? While most animals prefer to graze on lush green pastures, these wild ungulates have discovered a unique culinary experience right beneath their hooves. Perhaps it's the perfect blend of minerals or just the thrill of breaking social norms that makes licking road salts so irresistible for our fluffy friends. As autumn leaves dance around them, these adorable herbivores remind us to find joy in life's simplest pleasures. Their bond as parent and child is evident as they share this delightful adventure together. So next time you're driving through Montana's scenic highways, keep your eyes peeled for more than just breathtaking landscapes. You might just catch a glimpse of nature's own fast-food enthusiasts – the Bighorn Sheep family!
