Collars on Sheep

The Wyoming Game and Fish Department has put radio collars on 10 bighorn sheep ewes in the Jackson area. Two lambs removed from the herd last winter tested positive for a pathogen implicated in sheep die-offs elsewhere in the West. The goal is to learn more about bighorn sheep migration corridors and whether different portions of the Jackson herd intermingle on lambing and summer ranges.
