Shepherd with Three Sheep
Pastoral herding of domestic animals has been historically significant with scholars who suggest that domestic sheep have been present in some areas of northern China as early 3700 BCE. Sheep were among the first animals to have been domesticated by humans. These sheep were primarily raised for meat, milk, and skins. Woolly sheep were later bred and imported to Africa and Europe. The Roman Empire kept sheep on a wide scale – during the Roman occupation of the British Isles, a large wool processing factory was established in Winchester, England in about 50 CE. The first domestic sheep in North America arrived with Christopher Columbus’ second voyage in 1493.

Flock of Sheep
Flocking is a behavior shown by mammals, birds, fish, and even insects. These groups are formed to better detect attempted predator attacks and protect against them. For sheep, “flock” refers to a relatively small group. A larger group may be called a mob or a band. Herd is a shortened variation, more of a slang version, derived from the word “shepherd,” the individual who keeps the sheep united by “herding” them. When sheep are raised on an open range, such as a farm or ranch, and are allowed to roam free, they are called bands of sheep. Typically, a band refers to a group of sheep that is large, 500 or more.

Black Randall Lineback Cows
Dairy cattle (also called dairy cows) are bred for the ability to produce large quantities of milk. Historically, little distinction was made between dairy cattle and beef cattle, with the same stock often being used for both meat and milk production. Our cattle are referred to as the Randall Lineback, one of the earlier known breeds of cattle in North America. This breed of cattle exists in unique variations of both brown and black color. It is thought the Randall Linebacks are a combination of Dutch, French, and English cattle and are a “landrace” breed descended from common cattle in New England.

Brown Randall Lineback Cows
The Randall Lineback breed is the last survivor of the once numerous “all-purpose” breed of cattle that became popular throughout New England beginning in the late 1600s. Numerous European cattle from different homelands were introduced into New England and, over time, these imports were mixed together. Individuals with desirable traits were selected to produce hardy, useful cattle that served local demand for milk, draft, and meat for centuries thereafter. Because they preceded the era of “purebred” cattle, the precise origin Randall Linebacks will most likely never be known.
