My name is Donald Chavez y Gilbert. My avocation has been to rescue the New Mexico Dahl Heritage Sheep from extinction. There were only six left back in the 1980s when I started rescue efforts. I am a 16th generation descendant of El Dorado Spanish Explorer, Francisco Vasquez de Coronado y Lujan, (
)
, a sheep rancher decedent of the first Spanish colonists which brought the first cowboys to the Wild West, and an eight generation descendant of Belen Land Grant founder, Diego de Torres still living on the Belen Land Grant ranch in the US State of New Mexico.
The New Mexico Department of Tourism (https://www.newmexico.org) has certified the New Mexico Dahl Heritage Sheep a registered trademark under the NEW MEXICO TRUE program.
