Sheep raising was actually introduced into Montana’s Bitterroot Valley by Catholic Missionary Father De Smet and over the 19th-Century often grew in concert with cattle raising with many ranches maintaining both herds. Following the disastrous Winter of 1886-1887 in which thousands of cattle died off sheep ranching became the predominant stock shipped into and out of Montana as they not only handled the Montana Winters well they cost much less to raise and wool was a significant commodity.
