Sheep are closely related to goats. People keep sheep for their wool and their meat. Every year the wool must be cut off the sheep so it can be used to make clothes - people who do this are called shearers.
Male sheep are called rams, female sheep are called ewes and baby sheep are called lambs. Rams grow big, curled horns as they get older.
