Thanks. Custom built 280ai.
It was a broken horn hunt on White Sands Missile Range.
They are awesome eating!
No. Not native. Introduced to wsmr in, iirc, the 60's.

That's Trap.
My boy goes everywhere with me.
Oryx hunting included!
He stayed in the truck during the stalk tho. Those this are mean, and I don't want a punctured buddy. They fend off lions with those spikes in their native Africa, so a dog is nothing to one.

Why did they import them? Was the sole purpose for hunting?

Congratulations!
When I did the hunt years ago all the hunts were "Once in a Life Time" so I can no-longer do the WSMR hunt. I did get a nice one.
I've heard the broken horn hunts are not Once in a Life Time which is great. If I could, I'd do the hunt every year. It was fun and the meat was pretty good.

Frank Hibben, an archaeologist married to Brownie Eastman, and I think Tom Bolack were both on the Fish and Game commission. There were both big time hunters all over the world. Hibben was chairman. Fish and Game tried to import kudu, which failed, but succeeded with Ibex, Barbary Sheep, and oryx. I was in Colorado for those years, and don't know the reasoning, but I have to guess they were imported for hunting.
