The Midwest Chapter of the Wild Sheep Foundation will auction a North Dakota bighorn sheep license at its annual fundraiser and banquet March 5 in Bloomington, Minn.

North Dakota has auctioned a bighorn sheep license each year since 1986 to fund sheep projects in the state, raising more than $800,000.

Last year’s license sold for $35,000. One hundred percent of the proceeds from the sale of the license, along with an additional annual grant of $15,000, are used to enhance management of North Dakota’s bighorn sheep.
