Judging by the New Zealand style Boer buck that guy is
holding that is billed as a wild "Spanish Billy",
along with the "Karacal" ram (Karakuls were bred for
the fur trade, in the US they're rare as hen's teeth),
and the Merino ram (a fine wool domestic breed), it
looks like some of these "exotic sheep and goat"
outfitters are just bringing anything with a rack home
from the sale barn.
However, breeding trophy animals is a serious business
down here so I doubt the Corsican is just a look.
It's probably developed into a breed in that the type
has been concentrated on until it breeds true. It
looks like it has primarily Barbado characteristics
(black belly, tan body, roman nose) but a better rack
(no risk of digging into the face as it matures), and
that rack looks more like a Rambouliet than Mouflon,
come to think of it.

who finds it hilarious some one would pretend shooting
a Merino ram is something to write home about.
