Hawaiian Black Sheep Hunting Information

Hawaiian black sheep are basically a specific color phase of the Corsican sheep. They came to Hawaii as descendants of the Corsican sheep brought to Hawaii by European settlers in the 18th century. Over time, the domesticated Corsican sheep escaped into the wild, forming wild local Hawaiian populations. They are Hawaiian black sheep when their fleece is darkest, almost black, which is a wide variance from their original light and reddish colors. Hawaiian black sheep are very adaptable animals, and in more mountainous, cooler regions, you may find Hawaiian black sheep that sport a shaggy, wooly coat. Similarly, Hawaiian black sheep can adapt to humid or dry and hot climates by adopting a shorter coat. This makes them well-suited for the Texas climate which varies greatly depending on location and time of year. As with most sheep and goats, Hawaiian sheep are known for their extreme tenacity, sure-footedness, and agility despite rugged terrain.

As part of their adaptability, Hawaiian black sheep feed on pretty much any vegetation they can find, from grasses and flowers to shrubs and trees. Like most sheep, they are social animals and form large herds for protection. These herds travel through various terrains in search of food and cover. Can you hunt in Texas in the summer? The answer is yes! Exotic game species, including Hawaiian Black Sheep, allow year-round hunting in Texas!
