Rams are members of the sheep family and are known for their distinctive horns, which are used for protection, competition, and attracting mates. They are found in various regions of the world, from the high peaks of the Rocky Mountains to the rugged hills of Scotland. Rams are primarily grazers, feeding on grass and other vegetation, and they are generally social animals, living in herds.

Ram hunting opportunities are available across the globe, from North America (for bighorn and Dall sheep) to Europe (for mouflon) and even Asia for species like the Marco Polo sheep.
Yes, most jurisdictions have specific seasons for ram hunting to ensure sustainability. Always consult local hunting regulations to determine the appropriate season.
Typically, hunters evaluate rams based on the size, shape, and curl of their horns. A "full curl" is often considered a benchmark for trophy status in many species, but exact criteria can vary.
Rams often inhabit rugged, mountainous terrains which can make the hunt physically demanding. Additionally, their keen senses and wariness make them a challenging quarry.
Due to the long-range shots often required in mountainous terrains, a flat-shooting rifle with good optics is generally recommended. Sturdy boots and layered clothing are also essential due to the variable weather conditions.
Some ram populations, like the desert bighorn sheep, have faced conservation challenges in the past. Many hunting organizations, however, contribute significantly to conservation efforts to ensure sustainable populations.
A ram is a male sheep, typically characterized by its large, curled horns. A ewe is a female sheep, usually with smaller horns or none at all.
