Summary

edit
Description

This is the first in a series of seven photos that show a research project on the National Elk Refuge related to bighorn sheep health and monitoring.

Bighorn sheep that utilize the National Elk Refuge and adjacent Bridger Teton National Forest were captured as part of a Wyoming Game & Fish Department research project. These female bighorns were captured with an aerial net drop, hobbled, and brought to a processing site where biologists could collar them, collect disease samples, and conduct an ultrasound on each animal to measure body fat and assess body condition.
