The Pantaneiro sheep is a locally adapted genetic resource shaped by the seasonal flooding, thermal stress, and heterogeneous forage availability of the Brazilian Pantanal. Characterizing its morphological structure using objective and field-applicable traits is essential for standardized phenotyping and conservation-oriented breeding strategies. This study evaluated 211 Pantaneiro ewes raised under...
