The Armenian mouflon (Ovis gmelini gmelini) is an endangered subspecies of mouflon endemic to Iran, Armenia, Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic of Azerbaijan, Turkey and Iraq.
In Iran, Armenian mouflons are found in the northwestern part of the country. Individuals were transferred to Kabudan Island in Lake Urmia in 1895 and 1906 by one of the governors of Iranian Azerbaijan.[13] A study carried out in the 1970s at the island found that their number declined from around 3,500 in 1970 to 1,000 in 1973.[7] In 2004 1,658 Armenian wild sheep were counted at the Angouran Protected Area in Iran's Zanjan Province.[14]
In Armenia, O. g. gmelini is found in Syunik Province (and to a lesser extent, in the provinces of Ararat and Vayots Dzor).[15][16] According to a 2009 study there were "hardly over 200" mouflons in Armenia.[17]
In Azerbaijan, an estimated 250 to 300 mouflons are found in the Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic.
