Mouflon
Discover the Mouflon: A Wild Ancestor of Domestic Sheep.
The mouflon is a herbivorous mammal from the Bovidae family, considered one of the wild ancestors of domestic sheep. The mouflon has been successfully introduced to various parts of Europe, including Spain, where it has adapted to a range of habitats, from rugged mountain slopes to dense forests.
With its striking appearance, including a robust body and impressive curved horns (especially in males), the mouflon is a captivating species to observe in the wild. Their agile movements and ability to thrive in challenging terrains make them a true marvel of nature.
One of the best ways to enjoy the mouflon is by witnessing them at sunset—one of the most stunning and peaceful moments in the wilderness. As the golden light fades and the wild landscape transforms, the mouflon often becomes more active, grazing or climbing steep ridges. This sunset wildlife experience offers the perfect blend of nature, tranquility, and adventure.
Join us on a guided tour to spot the mouflon in Spain’s diverse landscapes, and enjoy one of the most memorable sunset experiences as these remarkable animals roam freely in their natural habitat. Book your adventure today!
