I received a unique call from the Utah DWR on Friday explaining that they were issuing Big Horn sheep depredation tag to me as I was on the alternate list for the closest open unit. Apparently a big horn ewe was hit near Rainbow Bay (South side) on Deer creek on thrusday 5/23. A report was called into the DWR saying that there was a lamb and a Ram with the Ewe.
Given the obvious danger of the sheep mixing with the domestic sheep (There are domestic sheep in the area) and then returning to the already struggling Provo herd they need to kill these sheep ASAP. They would like to give the opportunity to a hunter to harvest the Ram if possible.
I was hoping that anyone traveling through that area could keep a look out for any big horns and pass the information along to the DWR or myself.
Feel free to post any relevant information here or PM me.
