The Santa Inês is a breed of sheep from Brazil. As woolless hair sheep, the breed is primarily raised for meat,[1] and is one of the largest and most productive hair sheep breeds common to Brazil.[2] It is thought to have derived from crosses of the Morada Nova, Bergamasca, Somali sheep and native coarse-wooled sheep.[3][4][5] Santa Inêz are well-adapted for tropical climates, such as with higher parasite resistance than other meat sheep breeds.[6]
