Ovis ammon ammon, also known as High Argali sheep have been sport hunted for decades by sportsman from around the world - in very limited numbers! Why? It is incredibly expensive. Like $100,000 for tax, tag, title, and delivery to use a phrase. Also, you better be pretty fit to hunt those mountains. Thus, the cross sections of hunters that fit both rich, fit , and desire sheep are few.
At $100K a ram, the economic benefit if great. Local people poach the "beloved sheep" for food, and have been known to do so commercially. Meat is hard to come by in those places.
Fixed.
Marco Polo sheep has the latin name Ovis Ammon Polii.
