types of goats and/or sheep

Probably a Barbary Sheep. They are quite naturalized on the coast and down the Texas panhandle.

Wow, that's a sheep? Interesting, very pretty;-)

i've seen Barbary before. this wasn't it.

could it be some wild cross breed

still no luck

could it be something else

What state are you in?

Maybe just a domestic breed or cross of some sort that escaped? How big was it?

If this was near hearst castle, when I was young and toured the castle they tell you there is a lot of exotic breeds of animals because Mr. Hearst had a zoo and all the animals got out. I toured it 14 years ago so I can not remember how. Some died but the tour guide said it was very common to see goats and sheep that were imported from other countries in the area because they were some of the animals that faired well in the climate there. It is possible it could be from another country or a cross breed exotic goat.

Kylee those are some cool goats!
