Wildlife jump-out or escape ramp with bar for desert bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni), US Hwy 93, Arizona, USA

Wildlife jump-out or escape ramp with bar, at wildlife underpass designed for desert bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis nelsoni), US Hwy 93, Arizona, USA. The bar reduces the probablility that bighorn sheep will jump up into the fenced road corridor while it does not decrease the probability that the bighorn sheep will jump down to the safe side of the fence.
