Merino Sheep

The excellent quality of merino wool has made it a useful resource since the 12th century. Originally from Spain, merino sheep now live on farms across the world, bred for their highly sought-after wool. In this dynamic study of life science in action, readers will study the species of merino sheep, how their fiber is collected and processed, and the historic uses of merino wool. Eye-catching photographs enrich the book's stimulating content.
