Episode 54 Featuring Vic Coggins---The Biologist And The Return Of Big Horn Sheep In Oregon
Once Big Horn Sheep were all but exterminated in Oregon, restoring the population was more of a challenge than anyone imagined, for a number of reasons. In this episode of Fin and Fire With Jeff Mishler, Vic Coggins takes me through his 47 year career with the State of Oregon and the processes involved to maintain a sustainable population of this iconic Big Game animal.
About Jeff Mishler
Jeff Mishler is a fifth generation Oregonian who's life work is hard to quantify. Father, writer, photographer, television commercial director, environmentalist, video producer/distributor, website manager, hunter, angler and lifelong recreationist who lives a fly-by-the-seat-of-yourpants mantra. If he’s not in his office writing another essay or developing a show concept, he’s chasing mallards and pheasants with his lab Hailey, running his jet sled up a local river to a sweet steelhead run, setting up on a screaming bull elk with bow in hand or conspiring with his small circle of equally affected steelhead bums while downing healthy portions of really good Oregon beer.
