Sheep can often out number the population of humans in a country. This is especially true in Australia and New Zealand.
Sheep grow two teeth a year until they have eight teeth on the top jaw of their mouth.
A sheep cannot get up from lying on its back. As funny as it might look, the sheep will eventually die if he is not helped up.
