On arrival, the pilot noticed sheep on the airstrip and made two low passes in an attempt to clear the sheep. On the third low pass, the sheep cleared the runway and the pilot decided to discontinue the pass and make a straight-in approach for a landing. The low-passing activity distracted the pilot from completing the pre-landing checks and the landing gear was not lowered, resulting in the aircraft touching down with the landing gear retracted.
