European wildlife: Muskox bull rolling (Ovibos moschatus) in winter, Dovrefjell, Norway. There is normally not much going on with the muskoxen: they are mostly either scraping snow and ice to get access to some food, or they ruminate. Sometimes the males fight; we got to see and photograph a lot of that during our previous visit. But the bull rolling over with one leg in the air before getting up was a rare sight; glad I was able to capture it.
