Blue sheep have medium figures. Male blue sheep are larger than females ones, and both male and female blue sheep have horns. They are distributed mainly in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, west Sichuan and north Yunnan in China. Blue sheep inhabit in mountain lands which are 2,500 to 5,000 meters above the sea level. They are active in evenings. Since the color of their hairs is similar to that of rock, it is hard to spot them.
