2023-06-28 20:59:23 244

Vakaga sheep are a special breed that lives in the Central African Republic. It is named after a region in the northeast of the Central African Republic called Ouaga. Waggir sheep are one of the important livestock for local residents and are widely raised to provide meat, wool and leather.


Waggir sheep are generally large in size and have a strong body structure, making them highly adaptable and able to adapt to the harsh environmental conditions of the region. They have thick wool and hard horns. These characteristics allow them to survive in arid and barren areas and to withstand changes in weather and lack of food.


Waggir sheep feed primarily on grass, but can tolerate periods of starvation. They are often used in rural areas to provide meat, dairy products and wool, which are important economic resources for local residents. In addition, Waggir sheep are also used for agricultural work such as plowing fields and transporting heavy loads.


However, due to the impact of civil war and political instability in the Central African Republic, Waggir sheep numbers and breeding conditions have come under great pressure. The war led to the decline of the livestock industry and restricted the raising and utilization of Waggir sheep in the area. Therefore, protecting and restoring the Waggir sheep population has become one of the important issues for agricultural development in the Central African Republic.
