Sheep teeth grow continuously throughout their lives due to the unique structure of their teeth, which are adapted for their herbivorous diet. As they graze on coarse grasses and rough forage, their teeth experience wear and tear, necessitating continuous growth to maintain effective chewing and grinding. This adaptation ensures they can efficiently process their fibrous diet and obtain the necessary nutrients for their health and well-being.
