Rocky Mountain wildlife - Bighorn sheep and Black Bear

On my way home from BC, I was driving along towards Golden when I saw a bunch of people in a tiny parking lot off the highway...and this is why...These Bighorn Sheep are so used to people that they had no reason to move. I strategically faced them with my car, as I know my dogs would have barked if they had seen them, and that might have upset the animals (and made the tourists mad). About 30 minutes later, I saw a truck on the side of the road and so slowed down again - he was photographing this Black Bear on the railway tracks. I sidled along my car, and took this photo. He was closer than it looks and bears can move really fast. Mind you this one was licking salt, I believe.
