If you’ve ever driven along the Going-to-the-Sun Road, gone for a
backcountry hike in Glacier, or experienced the grandeur of
Hidden Lake, there's a good chance you've seen one of the park's
most majestic species: Glacier's bighorn sheep.

With an athletic disposition and large curved horns weighing up
to 30 pounds on males, the bighorn is a staple throughout the
park. Despite these impressive characteristics, Glacier’s bighorn
sheep face many risks. Your donations are supporting a multi-year
study on bighorn sheep
( [link removed] ) in Glacier
National Park to better understand and protect them for years to
come. Keep reading to learn more from Elizabeth Flesch, the
postdoctoral researcher working on the study.
