About Sheep

Sheep

Sheep or domestic sheep are a domesticated ruminant mammal typically kept as livestock. Although the term sheep can apply to other species in the genus Ovis, in everyday usage it almost always refers to domesticated sheep. Like all ruminants, sheep are members of the order Artiodactyla, the even-toed ungulates. There are around 1.2 billion domestic sheep as of 2019, making them easily the most common species of sheep. An adult female is referred to as a ewe ; an intact male as a ram, occasionally a tup; a castrated male as a wether; and a young sheep as a lamb.
