Nope, they are free-ranging, wild Ibex. No pen or high fence here (I would doubt that there would be any kind of high fenced operation in those mountains! Just as Hiker pointed out, the Florida Range is some rough, steep, and unforgiving country).

New Mexico also introduced two other exotic species some years ago, that are now in huntable numbers. They are the barbary sheep (aka audad) and Oryx (aka gemsbok). On my New Mexico antelope hunt earlier this fall, we saw oryx on a number of occasions, both on scouting trips and during the hunt. They are beautiful animals.

Agreed, all are beautiful animals and I would love to hunt any of them. They are pricey, but it beat heading half-way around the world to get one.

Someday---someday.
