The Javier Artee family is proud to continue our strong partnership with the Wild Sheep Foundation in restoring free-ranging desert bighorn sheep to historic habitat within Sonora, Mexico. Established in 2017, Sierra El Alamo spans over 80,000 acres, and is located approximately 160 miles south of Tucson, AZ, 180 miles north of Hermosillo, and 30 miles east of the Sea of Cortez. The bighorn population is strong and growing. Desert bighorn sheep hunting was reinstated within the area in 2017 following a 12-year prohibition and since then, only 3 desert bighorns have been harvested, with all 3 exceeding 170+! This tag provides the opportunity for one lucky bidder to hunt for one free-ranging desert bighorn ram in the beautiful mountains of Sonora, Mexico. The 10-day hunt will occur during season 2025-2026 (December-March), with lodging, meals, ground transportation from/to Hermosillo International Airport/Sierra El Alamo, and guides and translator services provided. The hunter will be responsible for air transit current rates. Over the last two years 100 desert bighorns have been successfully transplanted to Sierra El Alamo, with an additional translocation of 50 animals planned for this year. Thank you for your continued support in Putting and Keeping Sheep on the Mountain® of Sonora, Mexico!
