SO COMMON, SO RARE : Blue Sheep

The blue sheep is found in Ladakh’s alpine pastures and rocky hills, living between the snows and trees.

This enigmatic creature grazes like a sheep but clambers up high cliffs like a goat.

Blessed with sharp eyesight, hearing and a sense of smell, the blue sheep expertly forages herbs and shrubs to eat.

To add to its mystery, its coat turns reddish-brown during the warmer months.
