About Sheep hunting
Bighorn sheep is an all-American species. Two main varieties are recognized: desert bighorn and Rocky Mountains bighorn. The desert bighorn inhabits mountain ranges in the southwestern US, including Utah Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, as well as in Mexico. Rocky Mountain bighorn is a little bigger and dwells a bit to the north, in Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and the Canadian provinces of Alberta and British Columbia. Bighorn sheep can also be hunted as exotic species in countries like Uruguay.
Where to hunt Sheep
Sheep hunting spans the globe, offering opportunities in some of the most rugged and breathtaking landscapes. In North America, hunters pursue iconic species like bighorn, Dall, and Stone sheep in the Rockies and Alaska. Europe offers the classic mouflon, and even Africa can boast of sheep hunting - not only on South African game farms, but also after the Barbary sheep (aoudad) in its native mountains of Morocco.
Asia provides the pinnacle of sheep hunting with species like Marco Polo Argali, Himalayan Blue Sheep, and Siberian Snow Sheep, set in remote, dramatic terrain. Elsewhere, feral sheep thrive on the high-country ranges of New Zealand, Argentina, and on Texan ranches. Each region offers a unique combination of challenge, adventure, and natural beauty, making sheep hunting a truly global pursuit.
Preisverteilung
Sheep hunts vary widely in price based on species and location. Hunts for North America’s legendary sheep species, such as Bighorn and Dall Sheep, typically start from $10,000, and can easily go over $50,000. The decisive factor here is whether the hunter has the coveted sheep tag, and only needs the outfitter’s assistance to make the most of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, or the tag is provided by the outfitter. For Marco Polo you should budget at least $30,000, and rarer species can cost even more. However, sheep hunting does not have to be expensive. You can find offers for mouflon and aoudad at around $1,500 to $4,000, and in places like New Zealand and Argentina even feral and exotic sheep can ensure a challenging hunting experience at affordable prices.

When to hunt Sheep?
Sheep hunting seasons depend on the species and region. In North America, most hunts occur from late summer to early fall, with the rut offering prime opportunities. Hunts in Central Asia often run from late fall into winter and even spring, so that hunters can target sheep to descend to lower elevations. European Mouflon hunts align with the autumn rut, and overall, especially if you don’t look down on feral sheep, hunting options are available year round.

Sheep hunting is an endurance test that demands physical and mental fortitude. Most hunts are conducted in rugged terrain, requiring hunters to cover significant ground on foot, often at high altitudes. The classic method is spot-and-stalk, where the hunter uses binoculars or spotting scopes to locate sheep from afar, followed by a meticulous approach to get within range.
In some regions, especially for species like Marco Polo sheep or Himalayan blue sheep, horseback travel is often used to cover long distances in remote, mountainous terrain. In Europe and on game farms elsewhere, stand hunting or still hunting may also be practiced, particularly when targeting feral sheep or mouflon in more controlled environments.
No matter the method, sheep hunting rewards patience, precision, and preparation, making every successful hunt a true badge of honor.
