The snow ram lives only in Russia (Lat.: Ovis nivicola lydekkeri). This kind of the ram is subdivided into five subspecies:
- Koryak Snow Sheep
- Yakut Show Sheep
- Okhotsk Snow Sheep
- Kamchatka Bighorn
- Putorana Snow Sheep.
Also, there are two non-recognized subspecies of the snow ram. These particular rams are living in mountains of Yablonia and in Chukotka. All of them are isolated from the other subspecies. There are about 40.000 snow rams in Yakut. Sakha-Yakutia has the status of Republic. It is the greatest land in the Russian Federation. Yakutsk is the capital of Sakha-Yakutia. The most part in this Republic is covered by tundra and mountains, and approximately one third of it is located on the Polar area. The land is not occupied a lot and it is possible that there is nobody during walking for many hundreds kilometers. To compare with any other mountain hunting, this hunting by itself does not require the big efforts from hunter's side. However, the good form is always more preferable. They hunt in mountains at the height about from 800 meters to 1500 meters over the sea level. The professional guides, the cook, the translator and the assistant are available in the camp.
Hunting seasons. We are offering you two options of hunting time:
- The first tour is from May, till July
- The second one is from August, till November.
At the end of May and the beginning of July the hunters are usually sitting down and watching near the salted soils (the ground with significant amount of soda and other salts). This kind of hunting is one of the easiest kinds of hunting for the snow ram. That is ram's organism is exhausted without minerals after long winter, thus the rams visit very much willingly these salted places in the afternoon as well as at night. Hunting is possible in the afternoon and at night because this period of the year nights are very light there and so there is good visibility. At this period of hunting we can accept only 2 clients.
Another option of hunting, which is from August, till November, is good time of hunting, too. The most productive period is during the drive time from October, till November. At this period adult males go down from the far regions to females. You will have a chance to choose the largest ram males. The size of a trophy reaches 115 sm, the average is about 80-90 sm. The temperature in October and November on the average is about from -20 C to -30 C, it happens - 40 C. However, this temperature is easy enough because of the dry air.
To facilitate hunting on the snow ram for the clients we send the special hunters to the hunting grounds in advance; so they can look through where the large rams are. Certainly, we can offer for the clients hunting in August, also, but during this period these animals are allocated on all mountains and we cannot guarantee you 100% of success hunting. Although, many organizers of hunting tours use a helicopter for hunting, we have never done this.
During the autumn period we can accept only 4 clients. The cosy well organized heated house is a residential for the hunters. The cook prepares the food based on the Russian cuisine recipe. To reach the hunting grounds we use the cross-country vehicle and this will also facilitate hunting to you. 14 days are for the journey. 10 of them are the hunting days.
