Sheep production in Scotland is concentrated in the South of Scotland, with Dumfries and Galloway and the Scottish Borders the home to 31% of all the breeding sheep.
In 2018, Scottish Borders Council ran a competition for schools to design a welcome panel for the Tapestry Centre. Many of the entries from various schools featured sheep.
