The Criollo (also known as Creole, Chilludo, Pampa, Colombian, Lucero, Tarhumara, Uruguayan, and Venezuelan) is a breed of domestic sheep originating in the highlands of South and Central America.
In the mid 16th Century, Spanish settlers brought the Churra with them.
This is believed to be the ancestor of the modern day Criollo.
The Criollo is typically black, white or pied.
