• Respawn time of Ornery Sheep is 5 minutes.
• Immune to Sleep.
• Slightly larger in size compared to Ornery Sheep.
• Nyzul Isle: The Armoury Crate it leaves behind contains a ??? Sword, which may rarely appraise into a Katayama.

Historical Background

Carnero is the Spanish word for "sheep" or "ram".

Also, Carneros is a monster from the folklore of the Canary Islands (taken over by Spain). It was described as a giant ram with huge horns. It liked to go after children.

In another account, Los Carneros is the name for a great horned Ram with which parents threatened their children when they misbehaved. Los Carneros appears in an annual fiesta where he is born in huge effigy to remind children to be good. *(From the Element Encyclopedia of Magical Creatures).
