No, but sheep do !
This is an amazing characteristic that you may never have noticed. Sheep have awesome peripheral vision - between 270-320 degrees. This certainly comes in handy when predators are nearby and also, as sheep communicate with each other, using the wide range of vision to keep track of where the others are while grazing. It is important, however, to keep the wool out of their eyes for optimum vision! By the way, goats and toads also have rectangular pupils.
