Bloody Hell!!! Shopkeepers worst nightmare. What a mess.... Does anyone know where that many sheep came from? Did they escape from a truck or something? Smoke makes things work. When the smoke gets out, it stops! |

wow.... Sheep aren't known for their respect for other people's property. :( They do guard their own though, as my brother and his friend discovered while attempting to follow a "sheep path" in the Pennines. A pretty bulky native Yorkshire sheep blocked the path and refused to move. It got a bit aggressive and made them walk up the hill and around it.

The news reported that the "lead sheep" had followed a customer into the supermarket out of curiosity, and then everyone else apparently thought, "I have to know what good things they have there?" In Germany, there are several regions where transhumance (or "narrow-range sheep farming") is practiced. In spring, the sheep are driven to high-altitude pastures (e.g., in the Swabian Alps or the Rhön Mountains), and in autumn, they are moved again, for example, from the Swabian Alps through the valleys of the Black Forest to the Upper Rhine Valley between Offenburg and Freiburg. This is because the climate there is relatively mild even in winter, allowing them to graze in good weather, and when it's cold, they are kept in the barn and fed hay. The sheep in the video were probably a bit late with their "moving day." This happened in Hesse, so the sheep were possibly from the Rhön Mountains. And currently it's quite cold here in Germany and there's almost widespread snow, which hasn't been the case for several years - climate change...  |

Yin and Yang... Large areas of SE Aus. were 40 to 45°C today, several large fires. Strong winds bring the heat from the central and western deserts. Friday is expected to be Hotter. Fire danger rating "Catastrophic" (fires can not be controlled at all). |

Where is climate change when we need it?  causality ≠correlation ≠coincidence |
