About

The Ovis is a passive mammal found in the base game, recognizable as the sheep of ARK. It is non-aggressive and typically sought by players for mutton and wool resources, making it a common request for server-side spawning or population management.

Admins can reference the entity ID Sheep_Character_BP_C when using spawn commands or configuring NPC spawner entries. The name tag Sheep is used in certain server config contexts to identify this creature within spawn container overrides.

Because the Ovis carries no DLC requirement, it is available on all maps without any additional content unlocked. If population control is needed, adjusting its spawn multiplier in the game config is straightforward using the name tag as the identifier.
