Bighorn Sheep
Bighorn Sheep
I had seen some sheep in a remote canyon in Southeastern Colorado 30 years ago while hunting Muledeer and have wondered ever since if the were still there. Well, 10 days ago Mrs. Cash and I went back for a look and lo and behold they were still there. Enjoy. Dr.C

Re: Bighorn Sheep
I tend to come across some Bighorn about once a year on my travels but it looks like I have deleted all the photos on my phone of them. A little rarer is this guy from a few years ago trotting down the shoulder of the highway in Wyoming.

I have a Ruger No.1, engraved by a famous engraver that includes a depiction of a Big Horn Sheep on the receiver in silver.

There are a lot of bears in New Mexico but I don't see many bighorns in the Texas panhandle, sorry Dr.C

Re: Bighorn Sheep
Thank You so much, it's nice to be missed especially by the great guys that hang here. I have wondered about these sheep of 30 years after stumbling on their location so long ago. Prehistoric pictographs on the canyon walls indicated that they had once lived in this canyon so the Colorado. Wildlife folks trapped some at Salida, Colorado and put them in this canyon. Now there are over 100 in there and doing great. Dr.C
