Abstract
The domesticated sheep (Ovis aries) has a diversity of genotypes that are adapted to a wide variety of environments ranging from the tropics to the extreme seasonality of the high latitudes and from deserts to high rainfall areas. This diversity of genotypes (with over 2000 breeds) means that the species is highly adaptable to environmental/climate extremes and to some degree this adaptability is also expressed in variation in the expression of natural behaviours. However, there are a suite of behaviours that have been comprehensively described both for domestic and wild/feral breeds that represent the key behaviours of this species.
