The main carrier for disease for Bighorns are domestic sheep not exotics. One Texas Bighorn was headed for the Guadalupes all by himself.

If you hunt Oryx or Aoudads hard enough they move. I've seen this in Texas and Namibia.

Hope there are both OTC exotic permits and more sheep restoration efforts in the future.
