I have meant to post this for a while, any OBers headed out to Vegas this summer might be interested in stopping at Hemenway Valley Park, in Boulder City.

It is right of the highway between Vegas and the Hoover Dam. There is a resident herd of Desert Bighorn Sheep that hang out around the park. They are wild, but won't take off as long as you don't get close. Really cool to see and show the family, especially since they are one of the most expensive animals in the world to hunt.

I see 'em quite often when I fish the Salt chain of Lakes in the Phoenix area. I always take a moment to check 'em out. Awesome creatures
I got these pics back in April

Indeed

Mountain sheep and goats are interesting critters. Worth the time to seek the out if you can. In Stone Mt. Provincial Park in BC, they'll come down to your car.
