The people of Iceland are quite proud of their sheep. The title of this image is identical to a logo that is found in most restaurants and many clothing stores. The first sheep arrived in Iceland with the Vikings in 874 A.D., hence the title. And they are free roaming. Just about anywhere one travels roads of Iceland one can find sheep either behind the fence or on the road. They definitely present road hazard. If you kill or injure one while you’re driving, the common expectation is to find the farmer who owns the sheep.
These sheep are tagged with numbers. Some are tagged with different colors of spray paint. And they are free roaming and are free to mingle with sheep from other owners. Once a year, many Icelandic residents gather together to find their sheep and sort them at a sorting facility. There are clearly many more sheep than people in Iceland a country with a human population of 350,000.
