Sheep, who doesn't love sheep!
A few fun facts:
• There’s nearly as many sheep as people in Ireland
• There's an average of around 108 sheep per square kilometre in Donegal
• The Irish have been farming sheep for more than 6000 years. The proof came when a sheep’s tooth was found and carbon dated all the way back to 4350 BC.
• Sheep were actually one of the very first animals to be domesticated and have been engrained in human life from as early as 11,000 BC.
• White faced Galway Sheep are thought to be Ireland’s only remaining truly native breed, and have been granted ‘Rare Breed Status’ as an acknowledgement of their significance to Irish agricultural heritage.
• The blackface mountain sheep was imported from Scotland in the late 19th century.
• It has been revealed that sheep are able to remember and recognize up to 50 different faces, of both humans and other sheep, and will react to this face according to their memory of it.
