Like the trophy hunters, I'd like to get one before that happens! At first I thought they'd have been damaged through fighting, but I found out that they do it deliberately, smashing their horns on the rocks until the ends break off. It turns out that a Ram with a "full curl: is severely restricted in vision, and that's why they break them off!
