    I'm only in high school and I'm looking at careers now in this field. This video honestly showed exactly what I want to do!

    Beautiful story, the Bighorn is a magnificent animal. I'm glad Texas is helping to preserve them.

    That's how aliens abduct humans when their other method fails.

    @MrGmoney5050 The aoudad, or Barbary sheep, is an exotic species imported into Texas from northern Africa that competes with native Texas desert Bighorns for water and food.

    I can't wait to graduate with my degree so I can start working with TPW, just 3 more years.

    I got the chance to spot a Bighorn at EMWMA- thank you so much for what you’ve done for them

    Introducing semidesert grasses and plants from the southern hemisphere like soft spinifex or welwitschia could improve life of desert organisms.

    What is the differance in the bighorn sheep, and an aoudad. There are serveral where I live but we always called them aoudads.

    @MrGmoney5050 Thanks, I can tell the differance now that i watched your videos. The aoudads have longer hair and a little smaller in size. I really think I have seen both out here.

    Damn, manhandling the hell out of the Bighorn! It looks like a kidnapping/hostage situation.

    Well done. It’s great to see monies from hunting licenses and Pittman Robertson taxes at work.

    I don't understand why wild life needs to be managed

      Why do we need to manage the forest? Think about it?

      humans killed off most of the predators so humans need to keep an eye on the animal populations.

    nice informative video,
    on the other hand ,We used to fly Hang Gliders at Elephant Mtn, couple times / yr it was so beautiful, there was at that time huge head of Mule Dear, they were never scared of us and even watched us fly. Then when mr Johnson donated the land to the state, We were told that we can No Longer fly there , because they were introducing Big Horn Sheep to that area…. also said when the herd gets established we can fly there again … THAT NEVER HAPPENED! there are so little places in texas that we can fly , not like the great state of New Mexico that allows us to fly in the Lincoln National Forest " Dry Canyon & La Luz In Alamogordo , near Cloudcroft.
    Come on Texas Open some areas for Hang Gliding and be Proactive . We DONT take from the land , we are just Caretakers for it ! JMO………...
