The exact origin of Sheep is unclear, however the common hypothesis states that Sheep are descended from the Asiatic species of Mouflon, a wild sheep native to the Caspian region from eastern Turkey, Armenia, Azerbaijan to Iran. Sheep are now domesticated and are found across the world, compared to other livestock these creatures prefer mountainous or hilly regions. Generally, Sheep are kept in farmland, grassland, pasture, and other similar habitats with plenty of grass and plants to feed on.
