Barbary Sheep Hunting

The Barbary sheep, or aoudad (Ammotragus lervia), is a wild sheep native to the Atlas Mountains of North Africa, where it is currently endangered due to habitat loss and hunting. Several generations ago, it was introduced to the semi-desert mountains of Spain and the American Southwest, where it has thrived in a wild state. Despite challenges in its native habitat, the species has established stable populations in these new areas.
