Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Our inquiry revolves around several questions. Do herders predominantly kill immature animals? Precisely what is meant by 'immature' (or 'young')? Do hunters predominantly slaughter mature wild sheep? If so, under what conditions might large numbers of immature wild sheep be killed? - that is, could the age structure of kills in a domesticated population be reproduced by hunters? To investigate these questions, we have used as our study animal North American wild sheep, concentrating mainly on the Rocky Mountain bighorn (Ovis canadensis canadensis). We do this for several reasons. The Rocky Mountain (and desert) bighorns have been well studied and we are able to obtain behavioral data and population statistics from the literature. Second, because these sheep were never domesticated, we do not need to consider problems of identification of domesticates. Third, we have several ethnographical accounts of hunting procedures utilized by Native Americans. Fourth, we have access to several faunal collections for direct comparison of skeletal materials."--pages 294-295

Book excerpt: It took eight years and multiple treks to some of North America's wildest places, but in the end Oklahoma author Leonard Hansen secured one of the greatest of outdoor accolades: the Grand Slam of North American Wild Sheep.In The Great Wild Sheep Adventure, Hansen recounts the steps he took to bring home the four species of rams--Dall, Rocky Mountain, Stone, and Desert--necessary to qualify for that prestigious designation. Along the way he shares his disappointments and triumphs as he travels to the Alaskan bush, the mountains of Wyoming and Canada's British Columbia, and the deserts of the Texas-Mexico border in search of these four species of elusive wild sheep.Written to entertain both active hunters as well as armchair adventurers, The Great Wild Sheep Adventure is both a how-to guide for those who aspire to the pinnacle of North American wild sheep hunting and a natural history adventure for those who love the outdoors. Hansen covers how to physically and mentally prepare for an adventure to such remote and exotic locales--sharing his exercise training regimen, his target practice routine, and his gear list. He also includes the rich history behind the places he visits, making this a history not only of hunters, but of soldiers, settlers, prospectors, and outlaws.Supporting Hansen's narrative are maps of the hunting sites and regions, as well as sixteen pages of color photographs from his various hunts--making it a complete record of one man's amazing adventure.

Download or read book Mountain Sheep of North America written by Raul Valdez and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2021-11-09 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mountain sheep epitomize wilderness for many people because they occupy some of the most inaccessible and rugged habitats known to man, from desert crags to alpine mountains. But of all hoofed mammals in North America, wild sheep present the greatest management problems to biologists. This book is a major reference on the natural history, ecology, and management of wild sheep in North America. Written by wildlife biologists who have devoted years of study to the animals, it covers Dall's and Stone's sheep and Rocky Mountain, California, and desert bighorn and examines a variety of factors pertinent to their life histories: habitat, diet, activity, social organization, reproduction, and population dynamics. Additional chapters consider distribution and abundance, adaptive strategies, and management guidelines. Discussions on diseases of wild sheep present a wealth of information that will be of particular use to wildlife biologists, including detailed clinical descriptions of conditions that threaten sheep populations, from pasteurellosis to capture myopathy. An appendix reviews the cytogenetics and genetics of wild sheep. North American wild sheep may face extinction in many areas unless critical questions concerning their management are answered soon. Prior to the publication of this book, there was no single reference available in which one could find such a synthesis of information. Mountain Sheep of North America provides that source and points toward the preservation of these magnificent wild creatures.
