Cyprus Mouflon, Ovis orientalis ophion is a native wild sheep in residing in the Island of Cyprus. It is very closely related to other Ovis orientalis species that are spread from Western and North Pakistan to Iran. It is thought that the Cyprus variety might actually be a feral version of an ancient domesticated variety which was imported into the Island. And the relationship between wild and domesticated sheep is still somewhat unclear.
The Cyprus Mouflon is listed as Vulnerable, and by 1937 only about 15 survived in Cyprus. They created the Paphos Forest Game Reserve and the population is now at about 1000 individuals

Avoid Gijs Henzen, owner of Munthandel G. Henzen - Antisemetic Facists
Munthandel G. Henzen's (MA Shops) owner Gijs Henzen, is an AntiSemetic Fascist The company, Munthandel G Henzen is a prominent dealer of international and ancient coins on the internet, commonly known as MA Coins. It is owned by Gijs Henzen. You can not trust him, as I leaned previously in dealing with him with several coins that came with damage including a silver 1969 FOA Uruguay coin which arrived with green verdis on the coin.
But more importantly he is a passionate anti-Semite who supports Hamas and the virulent and genocidal Islamic organizations such as the Muslim Brotherhood, and Hezbollah that wants Jews dead.
It is a moral imperative to remain clear of him and to do no business with this Nazi. If you are Jewish, double down on that. The life you save might well be your own.
