Sheep
Sheep is a cloven-hooved, hollow-horned animal. There are over 900 different breeds of sheep througout the world, and only about 70 live in the United States.Not all sheep breeds have horns. In fact, most of them don't. When sheep don't have horns, they are considered polled. If they have little stubs that are loosely attached to their head, those are called scurs. Also, not all sheep have wool. Some breeds, like the Katahdin and Wiltshire Horn, have hair, like a goat.Sheep's tails need to be docked when they're born for sanitary reasons. Sheep were not originally designed to have wool; they were bred to have wool, and wet manure + wool + long tail + hot day = tail stuck to the body so the animal cannot poop, and it puts the sheep in medical jeopardy. Hair sheep's tails do not need to be docked.Sheep are docile, gentle, and friendly. They only "baa" when they're seperated from their flockmates or if they see you coming to feed them.Female sheep are called ewes. Intact male sheep are called rams. Castrated rams are called wethers. Sheep under 1 year old are called lambs. One year old sheep are called yearlings.Rams are mean - especially around breeding season (fall for seasonal breeders and all the time for year-round breeders). NEVER trust a ram because if they ram into you, they could break a bone. And never put two unfamiliar rams together in a large pen. They will kill each other.Despite common belief, sheep are anything but stupid. In fact, universities have studied the intelligence of sheep and they came up with the conclusion that they are as smart as pigs! (Pigs are extremely smart...just go to YouTube and type in "pig tricks".)Sheep are also confused with goats. There are SO many differences, it's annoying when people can't tell a sheep from a goat. Goats go "maa," sheep go "baa." Goats are browsers, sheep are grazers. Goat's tails are up, sheep's tails are down. Plus, sheep are extremely sensitive to copper in their diet, so you should NEVER feed them any food intended for cattle, goats, horses, llamas, or any other animal, because it WILL kill them.Sheep also make great pets (I have four of my own).Sheep
1) A person who exclusivly follows a group, movement, political party, organization, etc., and tends to hold the opinion or ideals of this group in high esteem, even if the opinion/ideal is negative or is problematic. This is generally because of a positive bias towards this group, or a negative bias towards groups who represent the opposite viewpoint. Often, people who fit this definition of "sheep" are assosiated with negativity, and are accused of being uable to "think for themselves."
2) Similar to deffinition 1, a "sheep" can also refer to someone who is a fan of certain types of entertainment (ex. music, film, etc), simply because it is popular, and it therefore reflects positivly on this person if they are a fan.
3) A common farm animal.

Sheep
A crazy ass animal with weird eyes and it runs in the weirdest way possible and it is terrifying when you are being chased down the road by one
Example:
William: why are you running so fast!?
Me: sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeep
William: sheep?
Me: ruuuuuun
William: oh no
William: why are you running so fast!?
Me: sheeeeeeeeeeeeeeep
William: sheep?

Sheep
People who rely solely on the opinions, views and judgements of others - whether its the media, celebreties or generally just the rest of the crowd. People who respect authority from society are not sheep - this is necessary in modern life. If they obey authority if the law is bad, then they are sheep. But people who follow every fashion, follow what they see on the T.V., or do or say something just because "everyone else does it" are pure sheep. For example, people who constantly criticise George W. Bush and say he is a corrupt dictator who's not doing his job properly just because Michael Moore said so and he made a seemingly convinving documentary are clear examples of sheep. People who rebel against society and school (e.g. Chavs) for the sake of being "cool" or "rude boy" are also counted as sheep.
Example:
At my school we had a session about the Arab-Israeli crisis, and people were moaning, saying "no-one cares" or "no-one wants to do this. I say follow them." Pure Sheep.

Sheep
A person who only does/buys things because everyone else has so is therefore following the crowd. Not only can you just call a person a 'sheep', you can also give subtle hints (see example 2)
Example:
Example 1
Person 1: Look at her with her new jacket.
Person 2: She is such a sheep.
Example 2
Person 1: Hey, do you like my new phone?
Person 2: Baaaaaa
