You could always turn your tag back in.........I might have applied for this unit and I'm surely next in line. It would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!

NOTAGS Report post Posted November 2, 2020 nice that they help you know the difference between a Pronghorn and a desert Bighorn while you're in there. I think those Sonoran pronghorn are like Bigfoot, just a myth. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There in there, but I believe they got thinned out pretty bad by the yotes around mid 90's. we used to hunt yotes in there often to hopefully help the lopes. game and fish use to ask people to do it. but this was back in the 80s and early to mid 90's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

trphyhntr Report post Posted November 3, 2020 I can imagine the child’s mountain area some animals. But I can’t hardly believe anything can live out in the growlers area. theres a bunch of petroglyphs out there. What did those people survive on? It must have been a lot different 500 years ago. I read in the early 1900s there was cattle ranching in the cabeza. How tf 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Heat Report post Posted November 5, 2020 My first job out of college was studying the Sonoran Pronghorn on BMGR. Saw a lot of cool stuff out there! Watched an F16 crash while we were working, that was a trip. Having 18 illegals give up to us to call for help was also pretty wild. As far as the pronghorn, the drought in 2001 reduced the herd from around 200 animals down to around 20. They rounded them up, put them in a pen with no predators and watered it. They have made a pretty remarkable comeback since and have been released regularly and moved to other areas to create other populations like on Kofa NWR/YPG. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That drought hammered the bighorn population also. Wonder if many died around the state this year Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
