In the late hours in June of 2025, two full-curl Dall sheep rams stood on a small outcropping in Denali National Park, Alaska, bathed in the soft light of the midnight sun. My brother, a friend, and I watched quietly as the rams moved with calm confidence, their large horns silhouetted against the pink sky. After the fall rut, the rams congregate into bachelor groups away from the ewes and lambs and remain in these groups for the rest of the year.
