Mountain goat for me. I’ve wanted to hunt one since I was in elementary school in Colorado and learned about them and then learned you could hunt one.

It is not just the animal it is where you have to go to hunt one
A bruiser of a Wyoming antelope buck, taken within sight of my grandfather's dugout cabin in the badlands of Wyoming. It's not the buck, but the location that is more important for me. Of course, this will require a random draw success as the point creep is real.
As a close second, a nice bull in that same location would also scratch the itch, but that land isn't commonly thought as elk habitat. "Within sight" might have to mean looking down across the valley to make that happen. (Also stupid point creep is a huge problem)

That would be pretty hard to beat! I hope you get the opportunity.

Alaskan-Yukon moose, 70”+ with my bow.
Have a spot picked out for it. Should say, the wife has a spot picked for it.

Tough call. There are a lot of cool animals I'd still like to hunt.

Bull Elk-not too picky; just want to hear him bugle one time!

G-bear on my own terms, no guide.
Surprised by the survey? Figured sheep & goat would be #1!

I chose Dall Sheep/Mountain goat, but I doubt it will ever happen, by the time I get the loot together I will probably be too old.
As to the 'other' category, don't forget I have Red/Fallow/Roe deer in the UK.
I might make 2021 my last year to offer a stalk to a member in exchange for a donation to a hunting conservation charity of your choice, it would be names in a hat again.
Cheers

A quick search says 180 NZD (google tells me that's about $120 USD) for a non-resident license which seems really cheap. It's the logistics that seems to be the biggest hurdle.
