Native to mountainous and desert regions around the world, wild sheep species include but are not limited to mouflons, urials, argalis, snow sheep, and bighorns. They have a notable ability to traverse extremely rough and steep terrains and often form social groups, with a dominance hierarchy typically determined through bouts of fighting.
