The internet says late fall to early winter. I was hoping for a more narrow response. Maybe the sheep in Montana tend to have the most intense rut in the second half of November? Or maybe the 3rd week of December?

I’d call Shawn Stewart at FWP in Red Lodge. Contact the Billings Office for his number.
