Learn More About The Lamb Drawing

A lamb is a sheep that is less than one year old. Sheep have been a familiar domestic animal for thousands of years, farmed for meat, milk, and wool. There are also many species of wild sheep.

Did you know? Female sheep are called ewes (pronounced "you's") and males are called rams. In the early twenty-first century, it was estimated that there were about a billion sheep in the world. That's one sheep to every eight people!

Sheep have long been used symbolically, and in fairy tales such as "Little Bo Peep." Ancient art often depicts ram's heads, and the ram is included in both the classical Greek and Chinese zodiacs. Because the Christ is compared to a lamb in the Bible, sheep are commonly used in Easter decorations.
