And sheep are being moved from Badlands ground to Badlands ground and these are the best damn bighorn sheep in the United States! The genetics of this herd are second to none and produce pretty much most of the record book sheep coming out of over there including one that just tied for the world record last year. Best thing about this is it moves in a new group of sheep that will be separated from the Sheep we already have and therefore will not have the pneumonia virus already in them. We've gotten some of these sheep several years ago and the population was exploding right up until that little girl decided she needed a new herd of sheep and even with the bug are recovering far faster then the sheep we have from elsewhere. The Sheep they move in from the Missouri breaks have done dramatically better then the Sheep they were moving in from Alberta and are used to Badlands life and so they do extremely well in it and this is going to be a good thing if they can keep the pneumonia out of them which is always the problem for all Bighorn herds everywhere. As for it being winter there is basically no snow there right now so it's not exactly like they're going to be struggling for food right out of the gate and it's also not like they're just winging this and making it up as they go along or just going to dump them randomly. Hell the game and fish is looking at more or less executing all of the sheep south of I-94 to replace them with sheep from the same area as well due to the fact that they do so much better here. That way they can get rid of the diseased animals and get the herd off and running since they cannot bring a new sheep while these diseased ones remain. So if North Dakota can pick up two new disease-free herds from the best genetic herd pretty much out there in one year I for one am all for it.</p></blockquote><p></p>
