Its amazing how many people hate wildlife.  Its not about hunting, its about sustaining a healthy wild population of sheep for generations to come.  While there are lots of people who have domestics who are very unlikley to have contact with wild sheep or goats, they do escape. I might remind you in the last couple years we've had a goat in downtown Palmer, and downtown Seward, a sheep on Moose Run golf course. Wild animals end up in populated areas often. There are domestic sheep or goats right across the highway from Sheep Mountain, some in Cooper Landing, Indian, Bear Valley, etc. They live in wild sheep and goat habitat already. We've been extremely fortunate to not have a die off already.  I'm very encouraged to hear that the amount of infection by domestics is that low, that would explain why we've been lucky thus far.  Why would a domestic owner be against protecting wildlife if it means getting a FREE test?
