North America's thinhorn sheep are in the middle of a quiet but crucial conservation story and the stakes reach far beyond the mountains. Bill Jex, Thinhorn Sheep Program Lead for the Wild Sheep Foundation, breaks down what is really happening across Alaska, Yukon, Northwest Territories, British Columbia, and the tiny places where these animals exist nowhere else on earth.

From climate-driven population swings and rain-on-snow icing events to disease surveillance, predator pressure, and the future of sustainable harvest, this conversation gets into the details that matter if you care about sheep, wild country, or the future of North American wild sheep conservation.
