Sheep are mammals and, like all mammals, they feed their young on mothers' milk. Mother sheep are particularly bonded to their lambs, a bond which is established via the olfactory sense (scent) shortly after birth, and will become distressed if they are separated from them. The lambs are dependent upon the mother for up to three weeks, but are generally weaned at about ten weeks.
