Last Ibex Released in New Mexico Canyon Release
The Department of Game and Fish released seven Siberian ibex into the Canadian River Canyon south of Roy joining about 40 head already there. Two males and five females, four with radio collars, were released at the Red Rock Experimental Wildlife Station. The original herd has split into several groups, most still near the release site. The radio collars on the original ibex no longer work, and each new collared ibex joined a different group improving monitoring data. Siberian ibex are one of four exotic big game species in New Mexico alongside Persian ibex, the oryx, and Barbary sheep.
