The Desert Bighorn: Its Life History, Ecology, and Management

By Gale Monson and Lowell Sumner

Book Overview

"A landmark, fundamental for all students in the field. . . . The material, in itself fascinating and lucidly presented, will draw the reader through and increase his understanding of the bighorn at just about every turn of the page." Orion Nature Book Review "An intelligently researched and fully documented analysis of this noble rock-climber's life history, and ecology, and the human management of this nearly impossible-to-manage wilderness species." American Field "An outstanding and comprehensive work." Books of the Southwest "There is quite simply nothing else around that can tell you anywhere near as much about desert sheep, by anywhere near so distinguished a crew of authors." Safari
