Abstract:

This plan was developed by a team of Idaho Fish and Game Department personnel using the best biological information available. Public input was solicited during development of the plan, and professionals from other jurisdictions were also consulted. The document provides an overview of current and historical bighorn sheep distribution and abundance statewide. It also describes the current distribution of potential habitat, and it discusses management issues including disease, predation, hunting, law enforcement, and public education. Future statewide management direction is identified in the context of these issues. The Department's goal for the future is to manage for viable bighorn sheep populations at ecologically sustainable densities while minimizing conflicts with other resource users.
