Bighorn sheep genomic dataset

High Density Ovine array genotypes for 511 bighorn sheep. Dataset was used to examine the genomic consequences of bighorn sheep translocations and population isolation, to
enhance understanding of evolutionary processes that affect population genetics
and inform future restoration strategies.
