I did my last case study of college on this predicament. Honestly, I am working as a technician in Nevada right now with California Bighorn and I have noticed that they tend to hang out in the exact same areas I would see Barbary in. However, barbary are a generalist species, that's why they can explode and fit themselves into so many different habitats. I really think theres only two ways it's going to go. Bighorn are either going to get completely wiped out from competition or the barbary will expand their niche around the bighorns. One of the main concerns is how aggressive barbary rams are during the rut. From seeing horn sheath density and size, I believe a bighorn would knock a barbary ram flat. However, I am in no way an expert in this field. I am very interested in how it turns out. If done correctly, this could be a huge breakthrough as far as where we could continue to place desert bighorn if they can coexist with barbary. We are basically going to be the first ones to try it so we could be pioneers if all goes well.
