ANIMAL INFO - FERAL RAM

    FERAL RAM (Ovis aries)

    These sheep vary widely in colour depending on the herd from which they come.  They are descendants of sheep either intentionally released or from animals which have escaped from farming operations in the past.   Most have lived in the wild for many decades.  Colours vary from black thru brown to white, all carry large curling horns.

    Feral Ram along with the Feral Goat, were quite possibly the first "sporting" animal to come to New Zealand, being released by Captain Cook on his first voyage here during the 1700's.

    The rams provide a unique trophy and are ideal as an extra fill in species.
