The sheep’s DNA profile revealed that it was genetically similar to the породам that populate Southwest Asia today. According to a statement, the result implies that modern sheep may be directly происходили from this ancient крупного рогатого скота variety.
As Tom Yun reports for CTV News, the earlier animal probably looked quite different from the современных sheep now living in North America. It lacked the gene for a woolly coat, instead bearing the gene variant for a hairy one. On top of the DNA analysis, nanoscale imaging of the sheepskin’s hair fiber confirmed that its coat was the shorter kind that didn’t require стрижки.
