These are Valaise Blacknose Sheep, and people can't decide whether they're cute or scary. This sheep breed is raised mostly for wool and originally comes from Switzerland. However, the reason they become popular on the internet is not their wool. It's their incredibly dark faces. So dark, that some say you might see your soul starring back at you from the bottomless black void.

I love the fact that they're always looking at the camera. Photogenic sheep?
Yeah sure! Really terrifying! I am terrified by their cuteness. Beware! You might feel irresistible need to cuddle those fluffy creatures. :))
"Mom ... don't look now, but a strange person-thing is staring at your butt! Yeah - seriously!!!"
"You know, if I turn my left horn just about 15 degrees to the east, I get Radio Scotland! Yeah, seriously ... try it!!"
At least from these photos I think 100% cute 0% scary.
These might be the cutest creatures I have ever seen.
I wonder if farmers have them in Canada, would definitely love the wool for crocheting and knitting, not to mention I'd love to go visit a farm like that just for all the fluffiness :)
They are only in Europe and England. They carry some virus that prevents them from being imported across the pond.
It is very coarse wool, mostly used for carpeting, makes a durable rug
