Animal Crackers

These are called Valais Blacknose - A breed of sheep originally from Switzerland



Sheep, like goats, have rectangular pupils. Their rectangular pupils allow them to have a 270 to 320 degree field of vision.

This means that they can see almost everything around them, except for what’s directly behind them, without having to turn their heads

Lambs are born around 145 days (or about 4.5 months) after the ewe falls pregnant. Lambing can start as early as December and go on to as late as June

Sheep have an excellent sense of smell. They even have scent glands in front of their eyes and on their feet!
