I see them from time to time but they either haul arse or I don't have my camera with me. I was checking a well and this one was about 800 or 900 yards up the hill. Wish I'd got a better pic but that's about the limit for this camera.

Very cool. We have them starting to show up on the Pitchfork. They haven't made it to our pastures yet.

The Aoudad have been moving in slowly from up around the Palo Duro Canyon area. They were stocked back in the 40's about the same time they stocked the Big Bend area. Post, Fluvvana and other area's north have a substantial population and had some on a ranch I used to lease nth of I-20 and east of Coahoma. These are the only wild ones I know of that are south of I-20 in this county, guess they couldn't resist the mountains.

Nice pic. They are nice to see at first...till they over-populate like fire ants. To me they are the same as fire ants...PITA.
Are idiots multiplying faster than normal people?

I've seen a couple on our place. They are very wild. One got hit by a car by our gate to our highway.
Life is too short, as is. Don't chance it. Don't text and drive.
