Konya Sheep is one of the two subspecies of mouflon that inhabits Turkey. Although the total number of sheep was 40 back in 1966, the field survey conducted in the fenced area in 2001,revealed the population number as 1408. Since the capacity of the fenced area has already been reached, DKMP started to launch a re-introduction project a few years ago in order to put the sheep back into its original habitat.The season for this hunt starts from September onwards and goes on through the end of January. Best time is considered to be October and early November. Weather conditions during this period are ideal for hunting. In December and January some snow fall and cold weather conditions can be expected.
