The Chinese New Year ushers in the Year of the Sheep, which is sometimes
referred to as the Year of the Goat, as the Chinese character for both
animals is the same. You may think of sheep as something to count is you
can’t fall asleep, but they are grown all over the world for wool,
meat, milk, and to show off at livestock shows. Sheep come in an amazing
variety, as I found while looking through pictures. I just had to learn
more about some of those different-looking breeds, and tell you about them in a list I posted at mental_floss.
