If it's a ram, the only explanation I see for its position is that it's charging and about to ram something. But the rest of the image makes such an interpretation extremely unlikely. The curls on sheep in medieval manuscripts and the scales on this creature don't look alike to me at all.
What does its curled up position mean though? That it's dead? Has it been noted that this position is very similar to the red pond creature?
Below I put together this one, the red creature, and below the same red creature from JKP's manipulated image, which I mirrored and rotated for better comparison. Seeing it like this, I would guess that this peculiar pose means the same thing. Maybe the red creature is supposed to be dead as well?
