18:10
Speaker 1: Well and that's the one THING i want to talk

Speaker 1: a pretty light touch on them to get them to
18:19
Speaker 1: the boat because they can't tear, away.
18:24
Speaker 3: Not necessarily with the. Water once you get the wahoo
18:27
Speaker 3: hooked in that. Jaw, See i've actually seen wahoo with
18:33
Speaker 3: their teeth cut through one hundred pounds.
18:37
Speaker 4: Cable, yeah and just cut. IT i mean with the
18:40
Speaker 4: fish right next to the.
18:41
Speaker 3: Boat you watch it just make a couple of flops
18:43
Speaker 3: and then you see the lower going flying one way
18:46
Speaker 3: and the fish is. Gone and you're sitting there like,
18:48
Speaker 3: that and you're sitting with a piece of cable in your,
18:50
Speaker 3: hand ninety eight or one hundred pound test cable and cut,
18:53
Speaker 3: through cut, Through so you, know you don't want to
18:56

18:59
Speaker 3: floral Car.
19:00
Speaker 4: You get them.
19:00
Speaker 3: ANYWAY i can't do, it but that's. It so you
19:04
Speaker 3: you want to use your wire or your your your. Cable,
19:08
Speaker 3: now let me ask you.
19:09
Speaker 1: THIS i know there's times you may be uh trolling

Speaker 3: when they see that, mahi especially when they see.
19:42

32:10
Speaker 1: they've been transporting some to try to save the herd
32:16
Speaker 1: from infections and things that happened.
32:22
Speaker 4: Very.
32:22
Speaker 1: Interesting this is an episode on the big horn sheep

32:29
Speaker 13: Texas back In, DECEMBER tpwd help relocate seventy seven big
32:34
Speaker 13: horn sheep From Elephant Mountain Wildlife Management area to The
32:38
Speaker 13: Franklin Mountain State park In El. Paso this operation was
32:42
Speaker 13: the culmination of years worth of effort from hundreds of
32:45
Speaker 13: dedicated individuals and dozens of.
32:48
Speaker 14: Organizations we're going to give you the inside, scoop from
32:52
Speaker 14: the history to the action and all the suspense in.
32:55
Speaker 14: Between so hang tight because we're about to take you.
32:58
Speaker 14: Outside if you were to try pick an animal most
33:01
Speaker 14: symbolic of The American, west you might think of the,
33:03
Speaker 14: bison the grizzly, bear or perhaps it would be the
33:07
Speaker 14: big horn. Sheep this mighty animal has been revered as
33:11
Speaker 14: a symbol of strength and vigor for thousands of, years
33:14
Speaker 14: making it the subject of myth and war for Both
33:16
Speaker 14: Native americans and wildlife. Frontiersmen for, me, PERSONALLY i recognize
33:21
Speaker 14: the animal from the label on the bottle of shiner.
33:23
Speaker 14: Bock turns out that, bach A bavarian style of dark,
33:27
Speaker 14: beer also means ram In. German last, YEAR i was
33:31
Speaker 14: surprised WHEN i learned that bighorn sheep aren't confined to
33:33
Speaker 14: The rocky mountains and are actually native To. Texas two
33:37
Speaker 14: hundred years, ago you could point at random to any
33:39
Speaker 14: mountain on The West texas horizon and know that big
33:41
Speaker 14: horns were bouncing across its rocky. Face at their peak,
33:45
Speaker 14: Population guesert bighorn, sheep the subspecies that lives In, texas
33:49
Speaker 14: numbered upwards of fifteen hundred in The Glone star, State
33:53
Speaker 14: but in the eighteen, hundreds as the railroad blazed its
33:56
Speaker 14: way across the, desert so spread unregulated hunting and domesticated
34:00
Speaker 14: sheep that carried. Diseases in nineteen oh, three The texas
34:03
Speaker 14: legislature banned the hunting of bighorns to curb their rapid,
34:07
Speaker 14: decline but populations continued to, plummet and in nineteen fifty,
34:11
Speaker 14: eight the state's last known native desert bighorn was spotted
34:14
Speaker 14: at The Sierra Diablo Wildlife Management area north Of Van.
34:17
Speaker 14: Horn even though bighorns are still found in abundance throughout
34:21
Speaker 14: The Western, states they've struggled to regain a foothold In
34:24
Speaker 14: texas thanks to repopulation efforts over the last fifty. Years
34:28
Speaker 14: the current tally of desert big horns In texas is
34:31
Speaker 14: about seven, hundred but it's been a constant struggle to,
34:34
Speaker 14: maintain let alone grow that population because of disease events
34:38
Speaker 14: over the. Years and that about brings us to where
34:42
Speaker 14: we are. Today DID i about sum that?
34:44
Speaker 6: Up?
34:44
Speaker 1: DAVID i think.
34:45
Speaker 14: So so then tell me what's the latest development in
34:49
Speaker 14: the effort to Repopulate texas with.
34:50
Speaker 13: Bighorns since the first big horns were brought To Elephant
34:54
Speaker 13: mountain In february of nineteen eighty, seven it served as
34:58
Speaker 13: a source of disease free shpe that we can use
35:00
Speaker 13: to repopulate many of the mountain ranges In West. Texas
35:04
Speaker 13: with its latest, capture we had two goals Bringing Elephant
35:08
Speaker 13: mountain population back down to a sustainable, level a healthy,
35:12
Speaker 13: level and then planning a new clean herd at the
35:16
Speaker 13: twenty six thousand Acre State park In El. Paso in Early,
35:20
Speaker 13: december The DEPARTMENT tpwd was among numerous organizations that gathered
35:25
Speaker 13: At Elephant Mountain Wildlife Management area to put that plan into.
35:29
Speaker 14: Action and how do you accomplish bringing bighorn sheep off the?
35:33
Speaker 15: Mountain it is a team.
35:35
Speaker 13: Effort there are captured companies that take the helicopters up
35:39
Speaker 13: and shoot the net guns and capture the. Animals there
35:43
Speaker 13: are wranglers that pull the animals, down they hook them
35:46
Speaker 13: back up to the helicopter and they bring them into
35:48
Speaker 13: the headquarters, area and then there's a whole team that
35:51
Speaker 13: grabs the sheep at that. Point and for, us it
35:54
Speaker 13: was putting them on the tables and making sure we
35:57
Speaker 13: got great data for our science that we do on
36:00
Speaker 13: big horn, sheep making sure they were healthy and.
36:01
Speaker 14: Clean and you, Know, DAVID i saw you there At
36:05
Speaker 14: Elephant mountain at the. Capture you're wearing a cowboy hat
36:08
Speaker 14: and a leather. Jacket it looked. Good it was a
36:10
Speaker 14: nice little get.
36:11
Speaker 16: Up what did you get up to while we were out, There,
36:14
Speaker 16: well it was exciting for me because you, know WHEN
36:18
Speaker 16: i joined The, department one of the things THAT i
36:20
Speaker 16: wanted to make an impact on was a bighorn.
36:22
Speaker 13: Sheep within the first month of my time here at The,
36:26
Speaker 13: DEPARTMENT i Visited Elfant Mountain Wildlife Management, area AND i
36:30
Speaker 13: wanted to make this a signature, project and so for
36:33
Speaker 13: me to be there at the capture helping to work
36:37
Speaker 13: those sheep and get them To El paso eventually it
36:40
Speaker 13: was a great. Opportunity you, KNOW i did everything THAT
36:42
Speaker 13: i was told to, do and THEN i volunteered for
36:44
Speaker 13: some things THAT i wasn't told to. Do BUT i
36:47
Speaker 13: will tell you it was a bit of an emotional
36:49
Speaker 13: moment when that first group of bighorn sheep came in
36:53
Speaker 13: off the, MOUNTAIN i think for a lot of, people
36:55
Speaker 13: not just, myself because finally we were doing something that
36:58
Speaker 13: we had planned for so many.
37:00
Speaker 14: Years take us back to the morning of the. Capture
37:03
Speaker 14: what was that? Like can you give me the five centses?
37:05
Speaker 13: Breakdown it was, dark first, thing it was, cold it was.
37:13
Speaker 13: Windy there was nervousness and excitement in the. Air everybody
37:21
Speaker 13: was trying to find their. PLACE i, mean we knew
37:24
Speaker 13: what we were going to be, doing but we really
37:26
Speaker 13: hadn't done a capture like this big in quite a.
37:30
Speaker 13: While once that first group of big horn sheep came
37:34
Speaker 13: in and they were, healthy and the team was just working.
37:39
Speaker 13: Seamlessly we had over fifty volunteers, there including department. Staff
37:46
Speaker 13: it was probably one of the best Experiences i've had
37:49
Speaker 13: in my professional.
37:50
Speaker 14: Career, so like, You, DAVID i was also An Elephant
37:54
Speaker 14: mountain for the sheep.
37:55
Speaker 1: CAPTURE i saw. You it was pretty.

Speaker 14: Fun it was cold the night before the, capture me
38:01
Speaker 14: and about twenty of our coworkers from the communications. Team
38:04
Speaker 14: we were all crammed into the bunk. Cows have you
38:07
Speaker 14: been there?
38:07
Speaker 15: BEFORE i. Have it was actually pretty.
38:09
Speaker 14: Comfortable we were all packed in their summer camp style
38:12
Speaker 14: so that we'd be ready to get up early the next.
38:14
Speaker 14: Morning and when we woke up at the crack of,
38:17
Speaker 14: dawn we headed out into that bitter winter. Morning it was.
38:21
Speaker 14: Freezing the mood was pretty, tense but everybody was buzzing
38:25
Speaker 14: with excitement as the large group of volunteers prepared themselves
38:29
Speaker 14: for this high stakes. Operation after we got settled at
38:35
Speaker 14: the capture, SITE i went and Found Elephant mountain's residant
38:37
Speaker 14: wildlife Biologist cody McIntyre to give me an idea of
38:41
Speaker 14: what to.
38:41

42:47
Speaker 14: Guy back on the. Ground the vet's in a large
42:53
Speaker 14: group of volunteers anxiously await the arrival of the first.
42:55
Speaker 15: Sheep good, yes cold to make the winds.
43:00
Speaker 14: Stop that's Doctor Sarah. Wycough she's one of four veterinarians
43:04
Speaker 14: here to process the.
43:05
Speaker 19: Sheep but at least it helps with the temperatures of
43:08
Speaker 19: the animals during the.
43:10
Speaker 14: Capture sheep are prone to, overheating and if sheep's temperature
43:14
Speaker 14: climbs too high for too, long it can cause permanent
43:17
Speaker 14: damage or even.
43:18
Speaker 15: Death the helicopter.
43:20
Speaker 19: Crews know when to stop chasing an animal and when
43:22
Speaker 19: an animal's getting. There they pull back from a lot
43:25
Speaker 19: of animals when they know they've been chasing them too.
43:27
Speaker 14: Much after the sheep reach the, ground the primary job
43:30
Speaker 14: of the vets and volunteers is to cool them down,
43:33
Speaker 14: then and to rush to collect samples and to tag
43:36
Speaker 14: and collar the animals as quickly as possible to minimize.
43:38
Speaker 15: Stress she'd get.
43:40
Speaker 19: Some, here three or.
43:41
Speaker 15: Four they just came over the. Ridge all, right everybody feeling?

44:00
Speaker 14: to the. Ground there's four men decked out in cowboy
44:02
Speaker 14: hats and western apparel waiting to carry it to the processing.
44:05
Speaker 14: TABLES i think someone might have told them that there
44:07
Speaker 14: would be cameras here.
44:08
Speaker 15: Today what's our? Temperature?
44:10
Speaker 14: Please the volunteers spray the sheep with water and apply
44:13
Speaker 14: ice to cool it.

45:36
Speaker 15: AND i was, like, certain you do realize it's so.
45:38
Speaker 19: MUCH i KNOW i have somehow got pooped in my
45:42
Speaker 19: fanning pack already.
45:43
Speaker 14: Cross i'm fidgeting with my. Recorder WHEN i hear the chopper,
45:47
Speaker 14: Return i'm. Surprised they're back after only half an hour
45:51
Speaker 14: THREE us.
45:52
Speaker 19: So everybody will be getting a. Scan BUT, i, okay
46:01
Speaker 19: where's my? Ultrasound thank?
46:03
Speaker 14: You when the that's got a female big horn also called.
46:07
Speaker 14: You they use an ultrasound to check for, pregnancy the first.
46:11
Speaker 15: One, yeah at least that. ONE i don't know if
46:14
Speaker 15: the other one's that you?
46:15
Speaker 19: Yet is this a ram or you you?
46:19
Speaker 4: Too?
46:19
Speaker 15: Use, okay she's, pregnant so press freeze save.
46:27
Speaker 14: Why cough takes a screenshot on the ultrasound, monitor which
46:30
Speaker 14: looks like a super rugged computer the kind of war
46:33
Speaker 14: reporter might use way out in the, desert.
46:35
Speaker 19: Okay and then press. Back, yeah that looks like a
46:40
Speaker 19: little spine right. There, okay, Cool so now we'll go
46:43
Speaker 19: to the other, one excuse, me and then we just
46:48
Speaker 19: want to clean the probe in between animals and change. Gloves,
46:53
Speaker 19: Okay so now, patient what is this patient's?
46:56
Speaker 15: Number?
46:57
Speaker 19: Zero choose zero gloves, okay pregnant freeze save.
47:07
Speaker 7: To check for.
47:07
Speaker 14: Pregnancy White cough looks for one of two. Things the
47:10
Speaker 14: first is the presence of something called cattle. Eatins basically
47:14
Speaker 14: you look for seas.
47:15
Speaker 19: And doughnuts and they are like give nutrition to the.
47:19
Speaker 19: Baby so ONCE i see, THOSE i know she's.
47:21
Speaker 14: Pregnant the other thing she looks for is of course a,
47:25
Speaker 14: fetus but sometimes they can be pretty hard to.
47:27
Speaker 15: See it's hard to tell, here.
47:29
Speaker 19: But, yeah that's the. Spine and that's some of the
47:32
Speaker 19: rib cages right. There so if you look them, screen
47:36
Speaker 19: so that's its.
47:37
Speaker 15: Head do you see it's little? Face, yeah and it's
47:40
Speaker 15: pretty far.
47:40
Speaker 19: Along it's the biggest one we've seen so, far kicking
47:45
Speaker 19: saying stop poking me, PLEASE i would like to go
47:48
Speaker 19: to my new. Home there's the, bones the, spine the.
47:51
Speaker 19: Heart in this.
47:53
Speaker 14: First batch of us all of the sheep are, pregnant
47:55
Speaker 14: and White cough expects pretty much every ear older than
47:58
Speaker 14: a year to be, pregnant which bodes well for the
48:00
Speaker 14: future of the.
48:00
Speaker 19: Herd this is telling us what to expect as far
48:03
Speaker 19: as lamb recruitment once we have the release and spring comes.
48:07
Speaker 19: Along but then it also acts as a disease surveillance
48:10
Speaker 19: method because lamb crops they can have really high mortality
48:13
Speaker 19: rates when it comes to Mob so if we see
48:15
Speaker 19: these numbers on here and compare them to what's going
48:18
Speaker 19: on in the, spring that might be a sign for
48:21
Speaker 19: us to, say, hey there could be a disease issue going.
48:23
Speaker 19: On we're not seeing as many as we saw an
48:25
Speaker 19: ultrasound this. Capture it's early enough in their pregnancy where
48:29
Speaker 19: this capture is relatively safe in the way of the
48:32
Speaker 19: baby shouldn't be affected or the fet it shouldn't be.
48:34
Speaker 19: Affected timing is also really important when it comes to
48:37
Speaker 19: these captures when these use are. Pregnant so everything's looking
48:40
Speaker 19: great right, now which is awesome.
48:41
Speaker 14: Inspite of the high stakes job she's. Doing Why coff
48:44
Speaker 14: is feeling pretty Good as the day goes. On on
48:47
Speaker 14: a break between cheap, deliveries she starts daydreaming about what
48:50
Speaker 14: it'll be like once the sheep are in their new.
48:52
Speaker 15: Home it would be so.
48:53
Speaker 19: Fun seeing little babies in a few, Months oh my,
48:56
Speaker 19: gosh bouncing.
48:58
Speaker 15: Around, yes that would be great to have little pictures
49:01
Speaker 15: of them all getting the. Zoomies. Ok they're so, Precious
49:06
Speaker 15: they're so buck.
49:07
Speaker 14: Eyed it's been a long road to get to the
49:09
Speaker 14: point where she can imagine this.
49:11
Speaker 19: Future i've been prepping for this for the last two,
49:14
Speaker 19: years essentially with, planning doing our disease surveillance where we
49:19
Speaker 19: were looking at all of these mountain ranges to see
49:21
Speaker 19: which ones were appropriate to. Release that started in twenty
49:24
Speaker 19: twenty two, meetings just getting everybody. Together so it's been
49:29
Speaker 19: a long process And i'm so happy we're here and
49:31
Speaker 19: we're finally doing.
49:32
Speaker 14: It When wykoff said, this it reminded me of the bigger.
49:35
Speaker 14: Picture why are we doing? This why spend all of this,
49:39
Speaker 14: time tremendous effort and money just to move some sheep.
49:42
Speaker 14: AROUND i went and Found freulan hernandez Tpwd's Bighorn Cheap
49:47
Speaker 14: program lead to ask for some.
49:49
Speaker 18: Answers it's important that we continue our restoration efforts because
49:54
Speaker 18: it was because of us that deser big warns are
49:57
Speaker 18: no longer, Here SO i think it's collect stively our
50:00
Speaker 18: responsibility to make sure that we get the habitat as
50:06
Speaker 18: close to as it once was as we.
50:08
Speaker 14: Can in the late nineteen, fifties the agency that later
50:11
Speaker 14: BECAME tpwd introduced what is now the bighorn's primary. Threat
50:15
Speaker 14: The Texas game And Fish, commission released forty two out
50:18
Speaker 14: ad Into Polyderic canyon to study their viability in The
50:21
Speaker 14: Lone Star. State their intention was to provide more hunting
50:25
Speaker 14: opportunities for private, ranchers but over the following ten, years
50:29
Speaker 14: the auDA population grew to six hundred and quickly spread
50:33
Speaker 14: beyond the confines of the park and onto private, land
50:36
Speaker 14: where they became harder to. Track now they've become a
50:39
Speaker 14: disease vector FOR.
50:40
Speaker 18: Molv it's also important for us to give back to
50:44
Speaker 18: the people Of. Texas taking the big ones to The
50:46
Speaker 18: franklins gives.
50:48
Speaker 4: The people a text as an opportunity.
50:50
Speaker 20: To see a species that is not commonly. Seen you
50:53
Speaker 20: see white tails all, over and you might see mule
50:55
Speaker 20: deer and lots of, place and you might see prong
50:58
Speaker 20: horn in less, numbers but there's still opportunity to See Prong,
51:01
Speaker 20: horn to see, bighorn and know they're very limited, opportunities
51:04
Speaker 20: and so we're trying to do that to give to
51:06
Speaker 20: the public another eating.
51:08
Speaker 14: Opportunity we're back on the first day of the capture
51:11
Speaker 14: and about forty sheep have been pulled down off the,
51:13
Speaker 14: mountain which means the crew has collected enough samples to
51:16
Speaker 14: send To, wattle The Washington Animal Disease Diagnostic lab and Pullman.
51:21
Speaker 14: Washington there they'll test the samples FOR.
51:24
Speaker 21: Mov so the next step right now is get these
51:28
Speaker 21: samples taken to The Wattle, samples take them to The Alpine,
51:32
Speaker 21: airport and then fly them to The Washington left will
51:35
Speaker 21: continue to. Capture it's just these samples we need to
51:38
Speaker 21: get up there so that we can get results back
51:40
Speaker 21: or you're.
51:41
Speaker 14: It'll take about twenty four hours for the results to come.
51:43
Speaker 14: In at that, point the sheep will already be on
51:46
Speaker 14: the road To El paso so they can make it
51:47
Speaker 14: in time for the public release. Event but if any
51:51
Speaker 14: of the samples come back, positive the trucks will all
51:53
Speaker 14: turn around and head straight back To Elephant.
51:56
Speaker 21: Mountain, luckily we feel pretty confident we've had on the
52:00
Speaker 21: landscape for over a, year no, disease, mortalities high. Recruitment
52:05
Speaker 21: this is just a precautionary measure to make sure that
52:07
Speaker 21: what we release on The franklins are all in clean.
52:10
Speaker 14: ANIMALS i jumped in a car With Austin, bohammon A tpwd,
52:14
Speaker 14: biologist to drive the samples to the.
52:16
Speaker 15: Airport is that the?
52:18
Speaker 14: Box so now all we have to do is not get.
52:21
Speaker 15: In a car, crash.
52:22
Speaker 14: Right, Yes we start up his truck and make the
52:28
Speaker 14: forty five minute drive to The Alpine Municipal. AIRPORT i
52:31
Speaker 14: knew the samples would be flown by, plane BUT i
52:33
Speaker 14: still wasn't expecting the private jet that was waiting for
52:36
Speaker 14: us by the. Runway, frustrats well, Off are you sure
52:41
Speaker 14: they're all?
52:45
Speaker 15: Right are you taking off right?
52:47
Speaker 4: Now?
52:47
Speaker 14: Yeah we're ready to the next, day the capture continues
52:51
Speaker 14: until about two. Pm we still don't have the results
52:53
Speaker 14: back from the, lab but we should head to Al
52:55
Speaker 14: passo soon otherwise we won't make it in time for
52:58
Speaker 14: the public bighorn release. EVENT i go Ask broylin for an.
53:01
Speaker 14: Update how many sheep did they get and are they?
53:04
Speaker 4: Stopping we'll get a total here pretty, quick right?
53:07
Speaker 21: NOW i think that stand in count of seventy.
53:08
Speaker 14: Eight it was seventy seven, Actually but with all the
53:12
Speaker 14: sheep processed and loaded into, trailers it was time to
53:15
Speaker 14: hit the. Road but if we got news that any
53:17
Speaker 14: of the sheep are positive FOR, mov we'll have to
53:20
Speaker 14: call off the, release turn around and head.
53:22
Speaker 8: Back it was after a hailstorm a few years. BACK
53:24
Speaker 8: i needed a new. Roof, YEAH i shopped around and
