There is no doubt that shelp are the stupidest animals to walk the Myr.  These six-footed ungulates can be found all over the Myr, even in the deserts of Khepera or the frozen wastes of Arnaksak, and there is one characteristic common to all - a unique lack of intelligence.

Shelp seem unable to remember anything and this has made them especially vulnerable to predators into whose clutches they will wander time and time again.  Fortunately they breed in such high numbers, their stupidity hasn't impacted upon the species survival.

Shelp provide the Myr will wool, meat and milk and as a result are highly valued.  Shelp farms are common throughout the Myr but most Myrrans agree that the best wool comes from the shelp of Tuirren.
