Nevada has 314 mountain ranges, more than any other lower 48 state. This vast and rugged canvas known as the Great Basin is naturally suited to harbor wild sheep. Through the vision of wildlife biologists and passionate support from sportsmen, bighorn restoration efforts have resulted in the 2016 statewide estimate of over 9,000 desert bighorn sheep! The 2017 Nelson desert bighorn Heritage Tag is open to all desert bighorn hunt units (approximately 50 units) except for unit(s) where the 2016 Heritage Tag harvest occurred. The season dates for most units are August 1 through December 31, 2017 (4 units have restricted access to DOD lands, season date restrictions, and special requirements). The 2015 desert bighorn hunt season was another record setting year with 285 rams harvested and 16 rams 170+ B&C from 12 different hunt areas. At least 1 ram over 180 B&C has been harvested every year since 2010! Standard tag eligibility provisions do not apply to this tag. Nevada’s bighorn restoration program is supported in large part by the auction of this Heritage desert bighorn tag. Stop by the Nevada Department of Wildlife’s booth to learn more.
