This Trophy Merino Ram was taken in the Texas Hill Country.  This sheep is white with its body covered in wool. The horns can grow to be quite large. Sometimes they grow to two full curls. A large male will weigh 250 pounds while a large female will weigh 160 pounds. The Merino ram is a domestic sheep originally from Asia. They are cousins to the great Marco Polo and Argali sheep which have the largest horns of all sheep. Most hunters can not afford to go to China or Mongolia to hunt them, therefore they might go for their cousin - the Merino sheep.
