E.—KAMCHATKAN BIGHORN (0. canadensis nivicola). Although the Kamchatkan wild sheep is readily distinguishedfrom the Rocky Mountain bighorn (0. canadensis typica) by the slender-ness of the horns at the points, and their wider tip-to-tip measurementas well as by the shorter, blunter, and more thickly haired ears, theshorter face, the longer hair of the body, and the inferior size of thewhite patch on the rump, yet the white Alaskan and the black bighorn,,in which the horns are of the Kamchatkan type, and the ears areshorter than in the Rocky Mountain race, tend to bridge over thesepoints of difference. These transitions indicate that all the bighornsare essentially local modifications of the same animal ; the Asiaticforms being, as might be expected, the most aberrant. Height atshoulder, about 37 or 38 inches ; weight, about 250 lbs. DistribiLtio
