Lot 20FN Idaho - Bighorn Sheep Capture Event for 2 people/2 days/3 nights
Two people volunteer with the Idaho Wild Sheep Foundation and Idaho Fish & Game for the 2027 capture-test-collar project in the North Beaverheads and/or Salmon River herds.
There will be two days of capture in February or early March 2027.
Dates will be coordinated with the IDFG thru the ID WSF.*
This is your chance to handle live bighorn sheep & assist biologists while gathering data & health samples from the sheep & attaching GPS/radio telemetry collars.
The data collected from this effort will dictate the management needs & future for this herd.
Volunteers need to be self-sufficient for binos, clothing, food & water/coffee.
Quality boots for hiking in steep terrain are suggested.
It's best to have a daypack that allows you to 'grab & go" should your assignment change throughout the day.
Trip departure is from Salmon, Idaho.
Be prepared to dress for the weather. Most of all have fun, be humbled by the country, awed by the sheep, meet people who share your passion for wildlife and relish the days.
Included: On field days, an Idaho WSF volunteer will accompany you & handle the transportation. Lodging (shared BNB with other WSF volunteers) the night before, during & the night after workdays is included.
Not included: Transportation to Salmon, Idaho & meals
*Helicopters don't fly in bad weather. Capture dates can be fluid so it's important for the buyer to be aware of this & be flexible themselves.
Value- Priceless
