A sheep learned to bark, and kept making a “barking” sound to his companions, and even his movements were very standard, much like a puppy. Facing this scene, its companions were a little overwhelmed.
The sheep was 7 months old and there was no dog in her house. When she heard the sound, she thought a dog had entered the yard.
Ms. Li said that she was not at home very often. Later, she heard from her father that this sheep used to be like this, and she thought it was very funny.
It is understood that animals are born with the ability to imitate. Animals that have been around humans for a long time sometimes mimic human behavior.
Not only animals but humans too, generally imitate their parents and objects they think are powerful.
The imitation behavior of animals, including humans, can be seen from infancy and childhood, and generally imitates mothers first. Such imitations teach them survival skills such as walking, eating, and hunting.
Animal imitation is the least dangerous way to learn and better adapt to the environment.
