Looking for Boulder City’s bighorn sheep? Check out ‘Ram Cam’
You say there are not enough channels focused on bighorn sheep? Boulder City officials have answered the call.
The city announced it has launched “Ram Cam,” a live video camera feed at Hemenway Park, according to a news release.
The bighorn sheep come down from the mountain during various times of day, making it difficult to know when they’ll be around, the release said. The camera was placed in the northwest corner of the park, 401 Ville Drive.
“They are a very popular tourist attraction to our community,” City Manager Taylour Tedder said in the release. “Unfortunately, they are wild animals and keep an unpredictable schedule. They may be in the park Monday morning at 8 a.m., but Tuesday, they may not show up at all.”
First suggested in March 2022, the camera feed will be available at all hours. The equipment cost just under $6,000, which came from the City’s General Fund.
