One of the most coveted trophies for international hunters
As a leading hunting agency in Spain, we offer exclusive access to some of the best areas for Aoudad hunting, also known as Barbary sheep hunting. This impressive species, native to the African desert, has perfectly adapted to the rugged Spanish terrain, particularly in southeastern regions like Alicante and Murcia where hunting aoudads is a real challenge.
The Aoudad is one of the most coveted trophies for international hunters. Its endurance, sharp senses, and ability to thrive in steep, rocky landscapes make every aoudad hunt in Spain a real test of skill, patience, and physical preparation.
Aoudad or Barbary sheep
The aoudad, also known as the Barbary sheep (Ammotragus lervia), is a striking and resilient wild sheep native to the arid mountains and deserts of North Africa. It is easily recognized by its sandy-brown coat, robust build, and the impressive curved horns that both males and females possess—though those of the males are significantly larger.
Males also feature a distinctive fringe of long hair, or “chaps,” that extends from their throat to their chest and down their front legs. Highly adapted to harsh, rocky environments, aoudads are incredibly agile and can survive with minimal water, deriving most of their moisture from the plants they consume.
Due to their adaptability, they have been successfully introduced to various regions, including the southwestern United States and parts of Spain, where they have established thriving populations in rugged, mountainous terrain.
