Sheep are domesticated ruminant animals with a thick wooly coat. The males, known as rams, often have large curved horns; while the females, called ewes, have none. Juvenile sheep are termed lambs. Sheep are kept for their wool, leather, milk, and meat (mutton or lamb), and tend to be kept in large groups called flocks.1 Sheep can be purchased for around two gold pieces.2
In religion
Sheep are the sacred animal of a few divine entities, such as the empyreal lords Neshen and Rowdrosh.3 The god Osiris also has the ram as his sacred animal.4 The late Iblydan hero-god Spalkis' areas of concern included the theft of sheep.5
