Description
Here's another of my tiny drawings, this time of a pronghorn buck and doe descending from the foothills into the river valley on a snowy Wyoming morning, with the opposite mountain range in the distance. I love the pronghorns, unique to the American West. They are by far the fastest land animal on the continent, having evolved to outrun cheetahs which went extinct thousands of years ago, leaving the pronghorns' speedier than they need to be except for the joy they take in running. However, their incredible bursts do still come in handy once in a while -- I've seen golden eagles trying to cull out youngsters from the herd, and coyotes are clever enough to set up a relay system to take turns chasing them. Pronghorns gather in large herds in the winter -- when I was a kid I often saw groups of 300. Fewer migrate into this area nowadays, but they are still a magnificent sight.
