Sheep

Sheep are passive mobs that first appeared in Survival Test mode. The main purpose of sheep is to supply a cloth; a building material. Sheep are 1.25 blocks tall, 0.625 blocks wide and 1.4375 blocks long.

Behavior
Sheep wander around aimlessly, when they come to an obstacle they will often try to breach it by jumping, and this makes for some odd behavior when at obstacles they cannot over come. They will make no attempt to stay out of water, and a common sight is several sheep bouncing up and down in the water. Sheep often spawn in groups of 2-8.

Information & History
In Survival Test sheep would "eat" grass, or rather, turn it into a dirt block. After "eating" three grass blocks, sheep would regrow their wool.

Drops
Survival Test
 * 0-2 Brown Mushrooms (on death)

Alpha
 * 1-3 cloth blocks (on hit)

Sheep do not drop cloth if they are damaged by cacti, lava, or falling; only by being hit. This means that it is not possible to collect cloth blocks using a mob grinder trap. (However, cloth can be crafted from string dropped by spiders.)
