Pesky Sheep !!

Crafty sheep conquer cattle grids

Hungry sheep on the Yorkshire moors have taught themselves to roll 8ft (3m) across hoof-proof metal cattle grids - and raid villagers' valley gardens.
The crafty animals have also perfected the skill of hurdling 5ft (1.5m) fences and squeezing through 8in (20cm) gaps.

They have destroyed several gardens and even graze on the village park, bowling green, cricket field and graveyard.

The grids were installed 10 years ago after a gardener in Marsden, near Huddersfield, held stray sheep hostage.

Is it me or does the story make it sound like the sheep are either stunning athletes or a bunch of hooligans :rofl:

Depends on whether they got into your garden first and ate all your mint.

Mrs Lindley added: "What amazes us is they are not frightened.

"When you try to move them on they look at you as if to say it is their patch and you are not right in the head.

"You can shout at them and even if they see a dog they are not frightened.

"Several drivers have had to swerve to avoid hitting the animals and damaged their cars or been given a terrible shock.

Good job nobody's crossed them with a kangaroo or you'd get a woolly jumper and nothing could stop them.
