Description

Aoudad or Barbary sheep were first introduced to New Mexico in the 1960’s on the McKnight Ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. Since that time these rugged adaptive animals have thrived and expanded as a great sport animal here in New Mexico. Barbary sheep were hunted with over the counter tags until 2010 when the State of New Mexico Game and Fish added them to the list of sport animals residents and non-residents need to draw tags for. However, like elk and mule deer in New Mexico, hunters can still buy over the counter licenses that allow them to hunt on private deeded lands in the State for Barbary sheep. This outfit offers both public land sheep hunts and private land hunts. These are 1x1 hunts.
