Argali by Ghirin

The argali (Ovis ammon) is the largest species of wild sheep in the world.

Distinct populations of argali are found throughout the highland regions of central Asia, including nations such as Mongolia, China, and Kazakhstan.

Like other wild sheep, argalis live in herds segregated by gender. Females will separate from the herd prior to birth and returns a few days afterward with her lamb.

Argalis vary in color based on location, but the basic color is grayish brown.
