You could create something like this, which is actioned in the admin area or when you hit a URL.

for($i = 0; $i<2000; $i++)
{
    $sheep = new Sheep(); 
    $sheep->name = 'Sheep no '.$i;
    $sheep->save();
}

Yii doesn't provide any functionality to populate database with sample or test data, but you can get number of links on google(popolate database with sample data). One of such is - Sample data genereators
