Aoudad

Aoudad Sheep stand 80 to 100 cm (30 to 40 inches) at the shoulder and weigh from 40 to 140 kg (90 to 310 lb). Barbary Sheep are sandy brown with a slightly lighter underbelly. There is some shaggy hair on the throat (Which extends down to the chest in males) and a sparse "mane". Their horns have a triangular cross-section. The horns curve outwards, backwards and then inwards. Horns reach up to 50 cm (20 inches).2

Black Hawaiian
The Hawaiian Black is a black Corsican type (hair) sheep.  It is believed that they are a cross from a feral sheep from Hawaii.  These feral sheep were crosses from sheep imported to Hawaii and Mouflon.  Like many of the hair type sheep in the US, they were originally imported to improve the domestic sheep, either through higher fecundity, non-seasonal breeding, higher tolerance to parasites, higher vigor, etc.  
The majority of the good Hawaiian Black sheep will have shorter tails than the Barbados Blackbelly, and will range in color from black to a reddish-chocolate brown, and can have a white muzzle.  Their horns will be black when young, and can turn a brown to yellowish color when older.6

Corsican Ram

Trophy fee: $500.00 and up

Corsican Rams are named for the large, curved horns borne by the males, or rams. Females, or ewes, also have horns, but they are short with only a slight curvature. They range in color from light brown to grayish or dark, chocolate brown, with a white rump and lining on the back of all four legs. Females weigh up to 200 pounds (90 kg), and males occasionally exceed 300 pounds (135 kg). During the mating season or "rut" the rams butt heads in apparent sparring for females. Rams' horns can weigh more than 40 pounds (18 kg), and frequently show broken or "broomed" tips from repeated clashes. They graze on grasses and browse shrubby plants, particularly in fall and winter, and seek minerals at natural salt licks.2

Mouflon

The Mouflon (Ovis musimon), one of the  Caprinae or "goat antelopes," is thought to be one of the two ancestors for all modern sheep breeds. It is red-brown with a dark back-stripe, light colored saddle patch and underparts. The males are horned and the females are horned or polled. It is now rare but has been successfully introduced into central Europe, including Germany, Austria, the Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Romania, even in some northern European countries, such as Finland.2

Texas Dall Sheep

Trophy fee:  $500.00 and up

Male Dall sheep have thick curling horns. The females have shorter, more slender, slightly curved horns. Males live in bands which seldom associate with female groups except during the mating season in late November and early December. Lambs are born in late May or early June.

During the summer when food is abundant, the sheep eat a wide variety of plants. During the winter diet is much more limited and consists primarily of dry, frozen grass and sedge stems available when snow is blown off, lichen and moss. Many Dall sheep populations visit mineral licks during the spring and often travel many miles to eat the soil around the licks.2
