About the Author
A native Alaskan, Tony Russ was hooked on sheep hunting after taking his first Dall ram in 1978. He took several rams with a rifle, then started bowhunting for sheep in 1988. Since taking the World Record Pope & Young Dall sheep in 1988, he has taken four more Pope & Young Dall rams. Tony also works as a guide--spending up to six weeks each fall hunting for sheep. He spends additional time each summer hiking through sheep country with binoculars and a camera. His fascination with sheep is equaled by his knowledge of their habits and habitat.
