Merino lamb

A Merino lamb is a young sheep known for its fine, soft wool, which is highly valued in the textile industry. These lambs, usually less than a year old, develop a dense, crimped fleece that provides warmth and comfort. Merino sheep are prized for their wool's quality, which is lightweight, breathable, and gentle on the skin. The lambs are raised primarily for their wool production, and their wool is used to make premium clothing such as sweaters, suits, and fine textiles. Their gentle nature and high-quality fleece make them important in the global wool industry.
