minecraft:sheep
The sheep is a passive animal that appears naturally across 27 biomes, including Badlands, Bamboo Jungle, Birch Forest, and Cherry Grove. It does not attack players and can be found wandering in many different landscapes.
Players kill sheep to collect Raw Mutton, which is the drop it leaves behind. A spawn egg for the sheep also exists, allowing players to summon one directly.
