Sheep on the Trailcam, a definite first time ever

[Otto]

One of my neighbors called this morning to see if we owned any sheep, there were 5 of them grazing in her front yard.  They are not our sheep!  Apparently there is a refugee family down the road a bit that were given these sheep as a "welcome" gift to make them feel more at home.   She tried to get them to round them up and secure them, but they either didn't understand or didn't care to.  They have been roaming around for almost a week.  They are called Jacob Sheep, and I guess they are pretty hardy animals!

Nice!

I heard there was a llama running around Arcade, NY.

4 horns are common, they may have up to 6!  No tags, domestic livestock, that would be a baaad move!

So they are still in a bachelor group. I wonder when they will separate for the rut? You may have some odd looking deer roaming the area in a year or two.  just saying !   lol

Them would be some spectacular wedding gifts in some countries 

[Pygmy]

They would have to be scored as non-typicals......

The males are 160-180 pounds, females 120-140

They are part of a coyote eradication operation Statewide. These critters gore them, and return coyotes  to their Somali immigrant owners to be cooked for dinner.

A few years ago (actually when I first joined the site) we were seeing a fallow deer at my buddies house in friendship NY . I think I joined the site so I could post pictures to find out what kind of deer it was.

See the refugees were given a gift and they didn't take care of it, they shitted up their country so we pay to bring them here so they can shit up ours too . The best gift that we can give anyone is to send them home

Well, I don't know the whole story, or even how those folks got here.  I'm sure they would rather be "home" too, except for all the bombing and war stuff going on around them.  So I won't pass judgement on anyone, my concern is for the animals (the SHEEP) and any danger they may pose to themselves or someone on the road.
