British Old Sheep Hotel

This is a matter of species diversity. Just as there are native cats, orange cats in China and short-haired cats in England. Although they are all cats, their looks are very different. So do sheep.

In the famous British animated short film Shawn the Lamb, the naughty image of a sheep with black skin and white hair is deeply rooted in people's hearts. I thought it was an image created by an animator, but I didn't expect that there was a prototype in life, that is, a sheep with a black nose.

Black-nosed sheep are native to Valais, Switzerland, and are black from head to toe. If you don't look carefully, you can't tell your eyes, nose and mouth apart. It's just that his hair is white and soft, like a cloud on his body, just like Sean the lamb.

If you want to ask why there are no such sheep in China, who knows? Just as pandas are the only ones, other countries only have greedy eyes. In the process of slow evolution, the distribution of species is random and fair, and each region has its own unique creatures, so there is no need to envy each other.

The characteristic sheep in Britain is Romney sheep. This kind of sheep is huge and strong, belonging to long-haired mutton sheep. It has been introduced to many areas and is famous overseas for its own shape.

Qiu Nan sheep is also a characteristic breed in Britain, and it is the oldest sheep breed in Britain. Qiu Nan sheep is a kind of short-haired mutton sheep, which is docile, easy to fatten and has excellent meat quality.

China sheep's business card is Hu sheep, which is a world-famous breed of productive sheep and a local breed of livestock and poultry under first-class protection. It is mainly produced in Jiaxing and Taihu areas of Zhejiang Province. The breeding history of Hu sheep is very long. After years of artificial breeding, it is now of high quality. Not only is the meat good, but it is also famous for its softness.

Therefore, sheep in different places have their own characteristics, which is far from the same. After all, all categories belong to sheep. Their differentiation is closely related to the environment. Terrain conditions, temperature, humidity and so on will gradually distinguish them and eventually form different breeds of sheep. However, the environment and climate between China and Britain are very different, and there are also great differences between natural species.
