The Marco Polo sheep is named for the famous explorer who first described them, and is a subspecies of argali mountain sheep, the largest wild sheep in the world. Located exclusively in the Pamir mountain range bordering China, Pakistan, Afghanistan, and Tajikistan, the Marco Polo sheep is now endangered with only about 6,000 remaining. It is instantly recognizable by its immense set of curving horns, the largest of which is said to have reached lengths of more than 6 feet.
