Tibetan sheep are indigenous to the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) and are well-adapted to
and even thrive under the harsh alpine conditions. Small-tailed Han sheep were introduced

sheep would differ in their utilization of energy intake and predicted that Tibetan sheep
would cope better with low energy intake than Small-tailed Han sheep. To test this …
