Sometimes it just takes one black sheep of the family to lead the others astray, and that’s not just a metaphor for this herd. 🐑
Kristian Holbrook of Oaklands Farm blames the escape on one sheep who showed dozens of others how to get past an electrified fence by crawling under it.The entire herd of 91 sheep escaped.
“They were happy as can be,” said Ashley Lavoie who lives next door and took video of the escapees. “They were eating the grass and the trees, drinking water out of that barrel. You know, just exploring, enjoying their freedom.” Fearing another escape, Moe, the ringleader, was separated from the herd and placed in solitary confinement – he’s a repeat offender.“They just are tired of being in the same spot,” Holbrook said. “I mean, there’s plenty of grass out here, so I can’t think of any other reason. They’re definitely getting fed.”
Experts say sheep are intelligent with good memories and have the ability to learn. They also exhibit emotions and have relationships.
