Merino Sheep
The Merino (also called Rambouillet) is a large, attractive sheep best known for its beautiful white wool fleece. Throughout its existence, this breed has lived in a variety of different climates and adapted well to each of them. They are capable of living in both very hot weather like that of North Africa and Spain, and very cold weather like that found in parts of Germany. Merinos have a very strong flocking instinct, and they can be counted on to stay together, even in wide-open regions. Merino rams have some of the largest horns of all the exotic rams.
