About Faroe Sheep
The Faroese sheep is a breed of sheep native to the Faroe Islands. First introduced in the 9th century, Faroese sheep have long been an integral part of the island traditions. The name Faeroe itself is thought to mean "sheep islands", and the animal is depicted on the Faroe Islands' historic coat of arms.
