What do you figure for age on this fella?

[Ramshot]

To all the sheep hunters who have done the sheep aging clinics at WSSBC. Or who just know sheep aging. What do you figure this fella is for age?

Hard to tell with horns being wet near the bases ( that's what it looks like). I would say 9-10.

A necropsy was done on this California Bighorn because it was dying in an area where domestic goats are living. It was observed laying in the same spot for several days before it died. The carcass was brought to the ministry and necropsy conducted last saturday. My brother has donated the horns that are being prepared by a friend to the Wild Sheep Society Annual Fundraiser for auction in a couple months. Ramshot

Looks 9- 10ish to me but as BHB said, it's hard to age being wet.

[TexasWalker]

I get 10, tough to see near the bases though.

Now that I can see the other see I will change my guess and say 7. Maybe 8
