The Arizona Sonora Desert Museum has many creatures of all types including these Bighorn Sheep which occupy many of the mountains around Southern Arizona. They used to be (and might still) inhabit the Catalina Mountains north of town, especially around Pusch Ridge.  There are three individuals in this habitat.
