Wild sheep are mostly found in hilly or mountainous habitats. Their diets consist mainly of <a href="/wiki/Grass" class="mw-redirect" title="Grass">grasses</a>, as well as other plants and <a href="/wiki/Lichen" title="Lichen">lichens</a>.

Sheep conserve water well, and can live in fairly dry environments. </p><p>The bodies of wild sheep (and some domestic breeds) are covered by a coat of thick <a href="/wiki/Hair" title="Hair">hair</a> to protect them from cold. This coat contains long, stiff hairs, called kemps, over a short, woolly undercoat, which grows in autumn and is shed in spring.<sup id="cite_ref-Clutton-Brock_3-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Clutton-Brock-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> This woolly undercoat has been developed in many domestic sheep breeds into a fleece of long <a href="/wiki/Wool" title="Wool">wool</a>, with selection against kemp hairs in these breeds.

Rams' horns may be very large – those of a mature bighorn ram can weigh 14 kg (31 lb) – as much as the bones of the rest of its body put together. Rams use their horns to fight with each other for dominance and the right to mate with females. In most cases, they do not injure each other because they hit each other head-to-head, and their curved horns do not strike each other's bodies. They are also protected by having very thick skin and double-layered skulls.<sup id="cite_ref-Voelker_4-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-Voelker-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>Wild sheep have very keen <a href="/wiki/Senses" class="mw-redirect" title="Senses">senses</a> of <a href="/wiki/Visual_perception" title="Visual perception">sight</a> and <a href="/wiki/Hearing_(sense)" class="mw-redirect" title="Hearing (sense)">hearing</a>.
