In combat situations, bighorners are rarely outright hostile unlike several other creatures. Strangely, ewes grow horns just like rams this is most likely caused by mutations due to exposure to radiation. However, according to Easy Pete they cannot be used as pack animals, as 'they just lie down until you take off'. They are generally 'laid-back' beasts with surprisingly docile dispositions, in spite of being quite capable of being extremely dangerous when provoked. Bighorners are communal animals if one member of the herd is distressed, the entire herd becomes aggressive. Some more wild bighorners can also be found northwest of Snyder Prospector Camp and as far as Zion Canyon. Ranch State Park, or around Cottonwood Cove. īighorners are herbivorous and are primarily found in wild herds of three to seven in the Mojave Wasteland, or in domesticated drifts of varying size in settlements such as Goodsprings, Jacobstown, Spring Mt. Several settlements, such as Goodsprings and Jacobstown, keep domesticated bighorners in order to survive. This makes them rather instrumental in herb tracking. Humans have since domesticated them for their horns, meat, milk, and hides, but wild herds can be found in mountainous regions, usually in close proximity to banana yucca fruit, which the bighorners love.
