No. Normally, wild sheep don't grow as thick of coats as domestic sheep, or live in cooler climates, so they don't need to lose their wool. Certain wild sheep do have winter undercoats that they lose, however. Over the years, domestic sheep have been bred to grow very thick coats that must be sheared. There is an experimental chemical that, when ingested by sheep, makes them lose their entire wool coat, thus eliminating the need for shearing, but the chemical is so bad for sheep that it's certainly not worth it.
