Kirtland AFB, New Mexico AFI is kicking off 2024 with a how-to and hunt for free range barbary sheep!
I apologize but this event is full! Please review our other events you might want to attend.
Why You Should Want to Attend:
Learn how to hunt barbary sheep, navigate the New Mexico desert, and discuss the impacts of invasive exotic species on New Mexico's ecosystem during a Saturday night campfire discussion.
What is it:
An adventurous outing chasing after free-range barbary sheep (aoudad) in the high desert of New Mexico in Unit 34 on BLM land. Each participant will be assigned a mentor to assist them as they navigate the BLM land that is home to part of New Mexico's barbary sheep population. Participants must bring their own firearm, required licenses/permits (available online at NMDGF), food and supplies. An 8-man tent can be borrowed from Kirtland AFI if needed.
Attendees can expect to learn:
- Barbary Sheep habitat

- and more...
