The pursuit of the Urial, a distinctive wild sheep of Central and South Asia, offers a unique and challenging mountain hunting experience for the dedicated international hunter. Outdoors International is your expert consulting service, specializing in connecting discerning sportspersons with elite, vetted outfitters and guides in the prime Urial hunting territories. Whether you dream of stalking the rugged hills of Pakistan for a Blanford or Punjab Urial, or pursuing other Urial subspecies in their native Asian ranges, we help you navigate the complexities of these demanding international expeditions at no extra cost compared to booking direct.
Urial sheep (Ovis vignei and its various subspecies) are known for their impressive curling horns, reddish-brown coats, and the often arid, hilly, and mountainous terrain they inhabit. Hunts typically involve spot-and-stalk methods, requiring good physical condition, patience, and skilled marksmanship. Our experienced consultants understand the nuances of hunting different Urial subspecies, the best seasons, and the most reputable local operators who prioritize ethical, legal, and sustainable hunting practices. These expeditions often contribute to local community conservation programs.

We saw bucks every day along with all other sorts of wildlife. Mountain goats, bears, and foxes were common sights. Fishing and crabbing was special bonus. The food was excellent, the crew was amazing. Outdoors International did a great job of finding exactly what we were looking for.
The hunting lodge was out of this world!, Rooms, food and the scenery were all A+. Our guide was exceptional and had us on Shiras moose all five days. We saw over 30 total with at least 10 bulls. They had a plan for everything including taxidermy and game processing.
