Mountain Goat





Though I had seen mountain goats on TV programs, I had never seen one in the wild. These interesting animals live high in the mountains and survive despite the steep terrain, harsh weather and dangerous conditions. At the Calgary zoo, the enclosures with mountain goats were very realistic looking. I was happy to make these photos and it looks as though they could be in the wild rather than in a zoo.
