When we think of the ‘typical’ sheep, we probably think of the same, white-faced sheep. But there are actually over 80 different breeds of sheep, including the Black Faced Sheep. Their short, dense wool can range from a cream colour to a dark chocolate brown. They’re generally very timid and gentle animals, but are great team players. They’re always found in herds to protect themselves from predators. Within these herds, the female sheep, called ewes, are the leaders. They have incredible flocking instincts, so when one sheep goes in one direction, they all follow. That’s why farmers use sheepdogs to control where the herd is going.
Sheep can self-medicate by using plants and soil to treat disease.

Sheep don’t have teeth in their upper front jaw.
It’s all in the detail
Look closely at Living Nature animals and you won’t be able to believe how close they are to the real thing. Our artists add shading and texture by air-brushing each animal by hand, for a realistic finish down to the very last detail.
Soft and gentle or cool and piercing, every animal’s eyes are different. That’s why we don’t use the same eyes for all our soft toys – we match them perfectly to the animal. Just look at the baby blues on our Frenchie puppies if you don’t believe us!
Trimmed to perfection
Our animal artists trim our toys’ fur by hand to get the finished product as close as possible to the real thing. From short fuzzy fur on noses to just the perfect amount of fluff on a tail, we make sure every friend is looking its best for when it comes home to you.
Two good to be true
Look closely at an animal’s fur and you’ll see more than one colour in each strand. We use two-tone fur fabric on lots of our animals to make them extra realistic, even adding prints to add depth and texture to your new friend’s coat.
