The number of sheep is huge. I want to see when humans run and sheep watch.

There are 20 times as many sheep as people in New Zealand - 60 million sheep and 3 million people.

If you line up New Zealand's 60 million sheep along the Equator they'd go around it twice.

About 1.6 million sheep, stood end to end, would fit around the perimeter of Wales.
