Description

Invasive aoudad are considered a threat to the success of desert bighorn sheep (DBS) restoration and mule deer populations in the trans pecos and southern new mexico, and threaten similar efforts in other western states as their range expands. The limited available information suggests aoudad are dietary generalists, aggressive, resilient, and rapid breeders, potentially conferring competitive advantages over native species. However, aoudad eradication in their colonized range is likely logistically and politically unfeasible. Populations are likely too well established for reasonable removal efforts to produce lasting effects, and eradication would eliminate a major regional economic driver. Under these circumstances, objective information and quality research are critical to determining feasible and acceptable management targets that ensure the persistence of native species.
