  • The Panama is a breed of domestic sheep native to the United States. Though its name is identical to the country of Panama, the breed was in fact named for the Panama–Pacific International Exposition where it was shown early on in its history. Panama sheep originated in 1912 in Muldoon, Idaho. Today Panama sheep are rare - largely unknown outside Idaho and Montana, and are one of only a few breeds which were started by private individuals in the United States. They were developed by James Laidlaw, a Scottish immigrant to the region who was seeking a large sheep better suited to the range than the Merinos which were most common in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The foundation of the breed was a cross of Rambouillet rams to Lincoln ewes. Panamas are polled sheep with white fleece of medium length and a large body suitable for meat production. Panama rams average 250–280 pounds and Panama ewes average 180–210 pounds when fully grown. They are particularly known for hardiness in the rough conditions of the northern Rocky Mountains. A breed registry was formed in 1951, but it has been inactive and it's unclear whether the majority of Panamas present today have not been crossbred. The sole remaining flock that is known to be pure is one maintained by the University of Idaho. (en)
  • 巴拿馬羊(Panama),是一種原產於美國的綿羊,原產於愛達荷州,目前也僅多見於愛達荷和蒙大拿州,也是美國少數由私人培育出來的綿羊品種。雖然有著巴拿馬的名字,事實上這種羊是以命名的。 此種是在19世紀末、20世紀初由蘇格蘭裔的詹姆斯·賴羅,以公羊和母羊雜交而成,以繁殖比美利奴羊更能適應山區環境的大型綿羊。 本種無角,長有中等長度的白毛,體型較大,適合肉用。非常適合洛磯山地區北部的惡劣環境。其於1951年獲批,但並不活躍,亦未知有無大規模雜交情況出現。目前唯一已知的純種群體存活於愛達荷大學。 (zh)
