Ovis gmelini gmelini
Carnero de Armenia (Sp), Armenischesschaf (G), Mouflon d'Armenie (F).
DESCRIPTION (male) Shoulder height 28-32 inches (71-81 cm). Weight 100-140 pounds (45-63 kg).
A graceful sheep with relatively long, slender legs. General coloration is reddish-tan with a faint grayish-white saddle patch. The underparts, lower legs and muzzle are white. The chest is dark brown. There is a narrow, brown flank band and brown markings on front of the upper legs. In winter, a short, black ruff grows on the lower neck and brisket. There is no bib. The male's horns are supracervical, curving above and behind the neck. Females are considerably smaller than males and may or may not grow horns.
DISTRIBUTION Private properties, mainly in Texas.
REMARKS This subspecies is native to eastern Turkey, northeastern Iraq, northwestern Iran and a small area in Armenia. Regarded by many authorities as the probable ancestor of the European mouflon and the domestic sheep. Has been introduced on private properties in many parts of the world.
HYBRIDIZATION The Armenian mouflon is either known or believed to crossbreed, or to be the result of hybridization, when in a game ranch environment.
