Oregon feral sheep hunt

[Justin.Medcalf]

Checking to see if anyone has hunted public land feral sheep in central Oregon. I checked with Oregon fish and wildlife and they say they don't manage them as game animals. Seems like a good opportunity to chase something with my stick bow! Plus anything to help out the wild sheep is a plus.

I've kind of half assed looked into this and auodad hunts about a year ago but couldn't find any information or anyone willing to give up any help.

I have not heard that there was a feral sheep problem. I would just be cautious, if your looking at "feral sheep" around the deshutes they may actually belong on the reservation and could get you into trouble.

There are certainly auodad that roam parts of the state. Deschutes, John Day, etc. canyons hold some.

You’d have to catch them on BLM, US FS, or state lands to legally “hunt” them.
