This is because ibex don’t have moms telling them their playground equipment is too dangerous.

I’d rename them to “nope goats”.

Also, if the rocks produce salt from weathering, why wouldn’t the rocks not on a steep damn also make them?

They’re still at it, then?

Limestone with thousands of tons of water pressure behind it?

Hmmm - you might have a point there…

Once there was a silly old ram
Thought he’d punch a hole in a dam
No one could make that ram, scram
He kept buttin’ that dam

'Cause he had high hopes, he had high hopes
He had high apple pie, in the sky hopes

Yup, had to stop watching after they started climbing. Sometimes my fear of heights is so bad that I can’t finish FPS video games where they’re unavoidable.

Yeah, too creepy for me to watch as well. Triggered my “What the fuck are you doing?!” response.

I hope somewhere near the end they reveal that they’re now supplying calcium lick blocks for the ibex to prevent them from taking risks.
