Field Notes
Description:
Size:5 to 6 ft (1.5 to 1.8 m)Weight:117 to 279 lbs (53 to 127 kg)
Habitat:
Wind-blown, grass-covered hillside. Sheep have access to hay distributed at the Elk Refuge during winter
Notes:
The Teton Range bighorn sheep herd resides year-round at high elevation in Grand Teton National Park and on the Bridger-Teton and Caribou-Targhee National Forests. It is Wyoming’s smallest and most isolated native herd- a remnant population of perhaps 100-125 sheep derived from a much larger bighorn sheep complex that historically lived in northwest Wyoming
