One of the things we wanted to do is wait and see what our residual herd looks like and let this episode go through a whole cycle and see what's going on with our lambs and lamb survival. |
The numbers we counted in the fall rut supported a 75 percent mortality rate. We still have around 50 head in the park. |
We're probably not looking at having a season next year. There may be a ram or two that would be in that category, but it's unlikely we would open the season with such a limited number of rams. |
