The California Department of Fish and Wildlife has selected the Wild Sheep Foundation (WSF) to auction its Open-zone Desert Bighorn Fund Raising Permit at the Reno, NV convention. This permit represents California’s premier desert bighorn hunting opportunity and provides the lucky bidder the ability to hunt in any of the approved hunt zones during the 2016 season.

The Special Desert Bighorn Sheep Permit offered through WSF will be the only fully open zone tag auctioned in California for the 2016/2017 season.

This permit is subject to all existing conditions required for the take of bighorn sheep in California, including the requisite hunter orientation program identified in Section 362, Title 14, California Code of Regulations. The tag holder will be able to hunt up to one month prior to the opening of the general bighorn season and over a period of up to five and one half months, if desired. The permit is non-transferable and may be used only by the purchaser. Any resident or non-resident is eligible to bid on and receive this Special Permit. Previous purchasers are also eligible to bid on this Special Permit. The strong support for bighorn sheep conservation that has been shown by WSF and those individuals that have supported sheep management in California has contributed to the addition of new hunting opportunities. For additional information, contact Regina Abella at 916.445.3728. Program staff may also be present at the annual convention to answer any last minute questions that interested parties may have.
