While out on the Utah muzzy deer hunt last week.
My cousin and I jumped this bad boy from its bed.
It stayed at about 50 yards for about 20 minutes before it ran over the ridge top. We called the DWR to see if they wanted us to shoot it, so it wouldn't move to an area where the bighorn sheep reside. Long story short, the DWR wanted to come and kill it themselves but by time they got into the area, it was almost dark and we couldn't locate it again.
The next day another hunter found it, called it in and they let him shoot it.
Bummer.
In hind sight, I wished we would have just shot the thing because my cousin really wanted to get it mounted.
A Corsican ram was about the last thing I would have expected to see up on the mountain that day.
Crazy.
The DWR has no idea where it came from.
