This isn't a touchless car wash, it's all cleaned by tongue. These pictures were taken by my sister who lives in Calgary. This past weekend her and my Uncle, who was in town for work, went on a road trip to Bannf. I think these photos were taken on the Lake Minnewanka loop.
Big horn sheep appear to like salt and have decided that vehicles visiting the park are now their personal salt licks. Yes, your $30,000 vehicle is simply just a block of salt, and these sheep are more than happy to give your car a free tongue wash. The ability of nature and animals to adapt is really quite remarkable. At what point did they figure out that cars were a convenient source of salt? Also, the fact that they aren't freaked out by the people or cars is really quite something.
Now that they have learned this valuable trick, it's time to pass it along to the next generation. Pictured below, a mother introducing a young sheep to the big grey salt lick.
