I'm just amazed at that. They're walking with four legs on a very steep angle with virtually nothing to step on and eating off the wall.

I'm just barely capable of walking with two legs on level ground and talking at the same time. :roll:

Just amazing.

The BB dam is poured concrete as I remember it... somebody has played a joke on you.

I got the same email this morning, it definitely aint Buffalo Bill and they dont look like bighorns to me. :?

This whole thing reminds me of the internet hoax that has been going around for 5 years at least, purporting to be Canadian snipers in the sandbox shooting bad guys at over a mile with .50 BMG rifles. The video is in fact a commercial hunting video showing some guys in Idaho shooting rock chucks!! :shock:

Yep. That's why I looked it up on the net. I could not remember ever seeing a stone dam in the US. Pretty cool the way those critters can hug a wall. I'd be slipping on my own pee.

Seems to be some type of Ibex on a dam in Italy somewhere if you believe this post.

It ain't the dam in Cody, I live here. The B-Bill dam is concrete, original part and new part both.
