I've noticed a few times in a row now that there's sheep wandering through my fort, even though they are assigned to my pen above ground. They do occasionally wander to the pen area, but don't stay put there. I *think* only the sheep that were born in the fort do this, not my original breeding pair.

Not sure if this is intentional or a bug.
Perhaps unintended leftover behaviour from back when you could allow or disallow animals in meeting areas?

If you unassign and reassign them, or de/reconstruct the meeting area, does it still happen?

My fortressborn animals do respect pastures and won't head to meeting areas, only pets (a dog and a duckling) will follow dwarves.

And occasionally an animal will escape from the butcher, but then they just head back up to the pasture.

unassign/reassign does not work. de/reconstructing the meeting area seems to have done the trick, although I'll be keeping an eye on one of the lambs a bit longer to make sure.

Is something spooking them?

I didn't see any jobs to haul them back to the pasture despite having idle dwarves.
