Ovis aries

Brown sheep exhibit typical behavior of domestic sheep, preferring to graze in flocks and displaying strong social bonds within their group. They are known for their docile nature and adaptability to various environments.

Breeding practices for brown sheep are similar to other domestic sheep breeds, focusing on traits such as wool quality, meat yield, and disease resistance. Selective breeding has led to variations in coat color and texture.

Brown sheep have a brown-colored wool or hair coat, which may vary in shades from light tan to dark brown. They possess the typical ovine characteristics, including a herbivorous diet, woolly coat, and characteristic grazing behavior.

Domestic sheep, including brown variants, have been essential to human civilizations for thousands of years, providing wool, meat, and other resources. They have played a significant role in agriculture and textile production throughout history.

Brown sheep are still raised worldwide for their wool, meat, and other products. They are valued for their versatility and are often bred for specific purposes to meet market demands. Efforts to improve breeding techniques and sustainability in sheep farming continue.
