Aoudad
The Barbary Sheep (Ammotragus lervia) is a species of caprid (goat-antelope) native to rocky mountains in North Africa. Six subspecies have been described. Although it is rare in its native North Africa, it has been introduced to North America, southern Europe and elsewhere. It is also known as aoudad, waddan, arui, and arruis.
Barbary Sheep stand 80 to 100 cm (2.6 to 3.3 ft) tall at the shoulder and weigh 40 to 140 kg (88 to 310 lb). They are a sandy-brown color, darkening with age, with a slightly lighter underbelly and a darker line along the back. Upper parts and the outer parts of the legs are a uniform reddish-brown or grayish-brown. There is some shaggy hair on the throat (extending down to the chest in males) and a sparse mane. Their horns have a triangular cross section. The horns curve outwards, backwards then inwards, and reach up to 50 cm (20 in). The horns are smooth, but wrinkled at the base.

Barbados Sheep
The Barbados Blackbelly sheep is a breed of domestic sheep that was developed in the Caribbean. Although it is likely the Barbados Blackbelly has African ancestry, there seems to be clear evidence that the breed, as seen today, was developed by the people on the islands from sheep brought by ships fairly early in the period after Europeans first arrived. This breed is raised primarily for meat.
Blackbelly sheep of both breeds are able to tolerate heat and exhibit more stamina than most breeds of sheep. They are fleet of foot and in many ways resemble deer. They are "hair sheep," which means they do not grow wool but have coarse hair instead. If raised in cooler climates, they often develop a wool undercoat that they shed in the spring.

Catalina Goat
(From Spain) This goat will be black, brown, reddish brown, or white on most animals, however, other colors are not uncommon. The males have horns that grow up and back from the head in large twists. Large male can weigh up to 175 pounds with the female weighing 80 pounds.
The Angora or New Zealand goats are classified as Catalina Goats also. The horns can grow very wide making very impressive horn mounts.
The Catalina Goat is one of the most frequently hunted exotics.
Corsican Sheep
The Corsican Ram, or Corsican Sheep, is a hybrid sheep popular with exotic hunt in Texas. There are mulitple color variations to choose from when hunting a Corsican Sheep, and with these color variations come different names.
Four-Horned Sheep
Perhaps the most easily identified sheep out there. It’s name is derived from the two sets of horns (or “4 horns”) protruding from the sheep’s noggin’. Some have only two horns or even 6, but 4 is most common in rams. Ewes will often have zero or 2 small, irregular-shaped horns. Horn configurations can vary greatly. Horns in 2-horn, and the lower horns in 4-horns, usually grow in a classic curl. Upper horns usually grow upward, but may curl as well. The horns are black or black/white striped. Females on Texas ranches generally are hornless, but in other parts of the world may grow mouflan-shaped horns. Jacobs are long, wooley-bodied sheep with a triangular head and sloping rump.

Mouflon
The mouflon (Ovis aries orientalis[1] group) is a subspecies group of the wild sheep Ovis aries. Populations of Ovis aries can be partitioned into the mouflons (orientalis group) and urials or arkars (vignei group). The mouflon is thought to be one of the two ancestors for all modern domestic sheep breeds.
Mouflon have a red-brown short-haired coat with a dark back-stripe, light colored saddle patch . The males are horned; some females are horned while others lack horns. The horn is curved in almost one full revolution (up to 85 cm). Mouflon have a shoulder height of about 0.9 meters and a body weight of 50 kg (males) and 35 kg (females).

Red Sheep
Armenian Mouflon or Iranian red sheep is an critically endangered species of mouflon endemic to Armenia, Iran and Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic of Azerbaijan.
The Armenian Mouflon lives mostly in open rough terrain at medium or high altitudes, where they inhabit rocky hill country, lowland and highland steppes, and rocky semi-deserts, as well as grass covered slopes and alpine meadows.
These alpine sheep spend the summer at the highest elevations, up to six thousand meters, right below the permanent snow. In winter they move lower and may come into the valleys.
They live in small or larger herds, and in the summer the older males live singly or in separate groups. They may live up to 18 years.
