No. Sheep and cattle are two entirely different species: Sheep are of the species Ovis aries, and cattle are the Bos primigenius species. Though sheep belong in the Caprinaesubfamily, not the Bovinae subfamily, which is where cattle belong, the two species are related, as they both belong in the Bovidae family, which encompasses all cloven-hooved ruminant mammals including muskox, goats, deer, and various species of antelope.
