Bighorn Sheep
In Hells Canyon
Rocky Mountain bighorn sheep
transplanted by the GameCom-
mission into Hells Canyon of the
Snake River in early April evi
dently found the rugged escarp
ments to their liking and have
taken up the serious business
of settling down and raising
families.
The initial introduction con
sisted of 20 bighorn sheep ob
tained from Jasper Park in
Alberta through the courtesy of
the Canadian Department of In
dian Affairs.
Recently twelve of the trans
planted animals were observed
along the Snake River Divide —
ten by Ron Bartels, district
game biologist at Enterprise,
and two by a local Imnaha ran
cher. Bartels tallied the sheep
during a flight over the area
to check on their whereabouts
as well as to check on deer,
elk, and other big game animals
which inhabit the area. Bar
tels sighted one nice half-curl
ram but most important was the
sighting of three newborn lambs,
additions to the herd since its
release in Hells Canyon Creek.
According to the report, most
of the sheep have moved from
the release site to higher ele
vations and several miles north.
The ten animals Bartels ob
served were located in the vi-
cinty of Summit Ridge and Bar
ton Heights, two prominences
along the Snake Divide.
The two other animals, one
a young ram and the other an
adult ewe, were seen in the
Freezeout Creek drainage a few
miles north of the Barton
Heights area. The rancher said
the ewe appeared heavy with
lamb.
