		The moufflon is to Cypriots what the kangaroo is to Australians - an easily recognisable national emblem that appears in a stylised form on the distinctive gold, blue and white tail fin of their national airline, Cyprus Airways.
		The male moufflon is a very handsome beast, he is similar in built to a young strongly-built buck with a short-haired coat, short tail and very distinctive curled horns that can be as long as 60 cm.
		Traditionally, the moufflon move to the higher areas in the mountains in the summer, and to the lower areas in the winter.

		Not much attention was given to the Moufflon beside the Red Deer and Fallow Deer world record trophies until 1986, when a ram with a 104 cm horn was bagged in Telki.
		This ram took the 10th place on the world top chart and proved that the Hungarian Moufflon lives up to higher international standards.
		The best quality populations live in the Hungarian mountains, like the Mátra, the Bükk and the Pilis, but as a result of recent settling programs, today the Moufflon can be found in most of the hilly woodlands of the country.

	Jimmy and Janie - Journal - From Austin to Africa
		Stories of the Hash House Harriers, photos of villages and ancient ruins, and moufflon (a sheep like animal that lives in the Troodos mountains) turned our heavy eyes bright once again as we neared our destination.
		We passed through customs and were able to use some of our Cyprus knowledge when interviewed by a representative from the CTO (Cyprus Tourism Office) and told him we had traveled from California just to see the moufflon and that we would be staying in the Troodos mountains.
		Although it may be illegal to have uncertified tour guides showing tourists around Cyprus, I must say that the J and J show is a pleasant and enjoyable experience and one that you should surely partake of should you happen to find yourself in the country of Cyprus for a layover or something.

		The novel combines pertinent ecological issues with a moving portrayal of traditional desert life and of the power of the human spirit to resist.
		Asouf has cut himself off from humanity—believing, like his father, that "people eat people"—and his encounters with the hunters do nothing to change his mind.
