Description
Photograph of grazing mountain sheep in upper Yellowstone, Montana, ca.1890. Fourteen sheep are pictured grazing the gravel-strewn terrain that surrounds them. At left, a ram at the edge of the mountain's cliff has turned around to look at the camera. A bush stands at center. A large group of the sheep to the far right appear to have found something and have put their heads to the ground. One of the sheep at center is lying on the ground.
