Sergey, awesome picture. According to the Desert Bighorn site, that is one of the relocated groups that's been reintroduced to their original habitat after being eaten by all the miners during the gold rush.

They look to be doing quite nicely given the quantity of young'uns in the group of 16.

It took me awhile to recognize them as Bighorns given they have much smaller ones than regular Bighorn sheep until the site explained that the Desert Bighorn is actually a subspecies. Made more sense then.
