The Breitling Watch Source Forums

My Mother sent me an interesting email today that I thought I would share with the group, now some of ya'll may have seen this, but if you haven't this is quite impressive to say the least. Oh and one more thing the images have not been photoshopped.

Can you spot anything amazing in this picture of the dam....NO....Look harder..........Still no????......well look at the next picture



Now can you see it...hmmmm...well look at the next pictures and all will become clear!!!



Amazing





These photos were taken at Cingino Dam in Italy and the critters performing the gravity defying acts are known as the Alpine Ibex Goat. They scale the dam to eat the moss and lichen that grow on the side of the dam as well as lick the salt off the dam wall. There were a few erroneous emails circulating around claiming these were Big Horn Sheep on the side of Buffalo Bill Dam in Wyoming.

Check them out in action on the Youtube clip below:

Jeez, that's amazing! But then I guess that's kind of how mountain goats live anyway, on sheer rock faces. Still absolutely amazing though! Great find!

This is a bit mean, but I'd love to set off a big firecracker and see what these goats would do...
