The Pusterese sheep, known by various names including Pustera Gigante, Nobile di Badia, Gadertaler, Tedesca di Pusteria, Sextner, Tauferer, or Aurina, hail from the picturesque region of Tyrol, Italy. With their distinctive white-straw yellow coat, they exude an aura of rustic elegance that is characteristic of the Alpine landscapes they call home.

Neither gender of the Pusterese sheep sports horns, adding to their gentle and docile demeanor. Standing at a medium size, with males reaching approximately 75 cm and females measuring between 65-70 cm at the withers, they embody the harmonious balance between strength and grace.

Bred for their dual-purpose nature, Pusterese sheep are valued for both their meat and wool. Their wool, prized for its quality and versatility, reflects the natural beauty of the Tyrolean countryside. Meanwhile, their meat is renowned for its flavor and succulence, making them a sought-after breed among discerning farmers and consumers alike.

In the tranquil valleys and verdant meadows of Tyrol, the Pusterese sheep epitomizes the enduring bond between human communities and the rich natural resources of the Alpine region. With their distinctive characteristics and vital contributions to local agriculture, they stand as a symbol of heritage, resilience, and the timeless connection between man and land.
