Where you hear it

sheepdeath.ogg is the death sound of the common sheep critter. Players also hear a sheep die when a polymorphed enemy is killed before the spell breaks. Sheep wander farms in Elwynn, Westfall and beyond. The bleat is sad and a little absurd. It is a classic Discord reaction.

TriggerPlays when an ordinary sheep critter dies.
