About Idaho Wild Sheep

The mission of Idaho Wild Sheep is to enhance wild sheep populations in Idaho, and with partners in adjacent states, for public enjoyment, education, and fair chase hunting; to promote professional wildlife management, and protect sportsmen's rights.

History: The Idaho Wild Sheep was founded in 1982 by two dozen concerned sportsmen who wanted to “put more bighorns on Idaho’s mountains”. From that core group, many of which are still very active on our board and committees, we have grown to a thriving organization with over 300 committed members.

We are selling acrylic reproductions of the skull of this ram for $900 OBO

This reproduction is an exact replica of the pictured Bighorn Ram.

Ram 50 was transplanted from Spences Bridge, British Columbia to Hell Canyon in 1997 as a yearling. He spent time in the Red Rock Spring area of Idaho and Durham Creek in Oregon. The ram came in contact with domestic goats and as a result died of pneumonia in Hells Canyon December of 2002. This photo was taken the summer before he died. He was 6 1/2 years old.

Official B.C score is 179 1/8. Length 38 4/8 Rt. 45 3/8 L Base 14 1/8 Rt. 14 2/8 L

Hopefully some of his offspring still reside in the Hells Canyon area.

Please contact Idaho Wild Sheep for more information.
