Rogue Australian Ram Produces 78 Pounds of Wool
Sometimes a new haircut can make you feel like a new person. Imagine the relief when Baarack the Merino ram was shorn of an amazing 78 pounds of overgrown wool! Look closely at the image above, that s not some well camouflaged Army sniper, that s a sheep.
According to the story in the The Guardian, the rogue ram was spotted running wild and reported to Edgar s Mission, an animal sanctuary in Victoria, Australia.
The folks from Edgar s Mission tracked him down, captured him and named him Baarack. Once they got him back to the mission they set up a long overdue appointment with some clippers.
