A second transfer of bighorn sheep increased the nursery herd at Promontory Point. Sportsmen for Fish and Wildlife, along with their conservation partners, captured more sheep from Nevada and brought them to Northern Utah. This is the end of the stocking phase at Promontory. The hope is that the current crop of sheep will be enough for natural reproduction to a point where sheep can be taken from this nursery herd and transferred to other units.
