She will present data on their behaviour and ecology, and discuss her findings on sexual segregation, decision-making, cooperation, breeding migrations and other snippets of the bighorn sheep in Kananaskis Country.
Dr. Ruckstuhl (Associate Professor at U of C) has worked on a variety of ungulate species in Europe, Africa and Canada, but she is best known for her studies on individually marked bighorn sheep she has researched for the past 20 years.
