| | Domestic sheep - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Sheep breeders refer to female sheep as ewes, intact males as rams, castrated males as wethers, yearlings as hoggets, and younger sheep as lambs. |
 | | Christianity uses sheep-related images, such as: Christ as the good shepherd, or as the sacrificed Lamb of God (Agnus Dei); the bishop's Pastoral; the lion lying down with the lamb (a reference to all of creation being at peace, without suffering, predation or otherwise). |
 | | Lambs are born with long tails which are cut off once they reach a certain age. |
