The ripollesa sheep is an ancient breed of the eastern Pyrenees. Its origin is not known with certainty but it is known that it is very old and that it has remained unaltered for centuries. The old shepherds distinguish different ancient varieties or ecotypes such as queralpine or vigatana. Formerly this cattle was subjected to the regime of transhumance.
The pastors who have maintained it until a few decades ago have preserved very old traditions and millenary customs that today vanish.
