Wild Desert Sheep: For The Recreational Hiker

By Duncan Harkleroad

One of the many draws for hikers and backpackers is the opportunity to experience and witness firsthand the wide variety of wildlife native to various regions. The Bighorn Sheep, also known as wild desert sheep, are among some of nature's most magnificent creatures. Few naturalists have spent as much time and devotion to learning about these rugged animals as has Duncan Harkleroad, author of "Wild Desert Sheep: For The Recreational Hiker". Raised by a father who also prized the wonders of nature, Mr. Harkleroad grew to appreciate the rewards of patience and photography during his many treks into the wilderness regions of Southern California and other southwestern states.Mr Harkleroad's love for the wild desert sheep has spanned fifty years. His simple approach to sharing his knowledge is demonstrated in his photographs and accompanying literature. Many of the photographs are the result of his active conservation work in helping wild sheep. It is his hope that this guide will accelerate one's learning toward a better understanding of the challenges facing sheep today and in the future.
