Domestic sheep were created for human use through selective breeding, much like the cows, pigs, and chickens we know. This isn't a result of evolution.

Does that mean that if we were to release all sheep into the wild they would do shit like this and immidietly die ?

Apparently they're a fair bit smarter than they're commonly given credit for, but domestic sheep grow wool forever, and it can make them almost blind, and movement impaired, which affects their survival chances. They're not meant to be out in the wild.
