Mouflon

Ali Pashang

Mouflon are a species of wild sheep and are thought to be one of two original ancestors of all modern-day sheep. They have a reddish-brown, short-haired coat with a dark stripe along their back and lighter-coloured side patches. The underparts are white as well as the bottom half of their legs. They also have a white muzzle and white circles around the eyes. There is a fringe of long hair down the front of the neck.

The males have horns and the females may or may not have horns. Males have larger horns than females and are usually around 85 cm long. The size of a male's horns determines his status in the group. Their curved, spiral horns arch backward over the head. They don't flare out as most wild sheep do at the end. The curve is almost one full revolution.

Mouflon have a shoulder height of about 0.9 metres and a body weight of 50 kg (males) and 35 kg (females).
