The bighorn sheep ram of North America can smell a female from up to 3km away during breeding season - their sense of smell is extraordinarily developed and plays a central role in reproduction.

The word 'ram' appears in the name Aries, the first sign of the zodiac - the Ram has been associated with spring, new beginnings and bold action in cultures from ancient Mesopotamia to modern astrology.
