Can't wait to see them take off.
Now use some of that money to go kill some cats and wolves near the relocation site!

The wild sheep foundation is a great group, that money truly goes to the animals, became a life member a couple years ago and don't regret it a bit.

Saaaawwweeett! That is great news.

Hopefully they keep predators in check around where they released them. I remember one transplant job done in the Minam in Oregon where cats got 5 out of about a dozen in about two weeks time. I've seen the donor heard in Oregon that they got these from, I'm surprised they needed helicopters to capture them.

Very cool.  Thanks for posting

Putting sheep on the mountain!  Sweet!

 That would be counter productive to the $150k just given at the sheep auction, that will be going to protect those cats, wolves and help fund the fisher reintroduction.
