An error in the spawning code in a early version:

They look a bit too cubic, but i like them
BTW: The Animals Mod uses the same Mod-Name
I suggest to change it

Genius idea to use nodebox but the only problem I see is that the animals don't rotate. They always face 1 direction. Maybe make it so that the sheep is always facing the character? That would be a start.

This mod was just a test wether 3D animals/mobs are possible. And it works!
So the other modders can use my code to create their own 3D animals. The animals mod author did that already so if you want a "real" animals mod you should use his mod: http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=629
If you are a developer and you want a simple code how to create 3D mobs my mod could help you out.
