ROCKY MOUNTAIN GOAT 



Kinship with sheep and antelope is reflected 

 in the track of the goat. Its heel-pads are so 

 large and rublier-like that the track is rarely 

 so sharp as here shown. "Although marvel- 

 ously surefooted and fearless in traversing the 

 faces of high precipitous slopes, goats lack the 

 springy grace and vivacity of mountain sheep 

 and move with comparative deliberation." 



BIGHORN 



The general style of a bighorn track is like 

 that of deer, but the toes are finished off 

 more squarely and the hollow in the outer 

 edge of each hoof is a strong characteristic. 

 Sometimes the tracks are in correct register. 

 The clouts rarely show. The dung pellets are 

 like those of the deer, but rounder. The track 

 is that of a ewe; the ram's is similar, jnit larger.
